Upcoming Events

 

Women in Journalism runs a year-round programme of events, including skills workshops, talks, panel discussions and social events. Our events bring journalists together to learn, share experience and connect with others working across the industry.

Some events are open to all while others are reserved just for members. Members also benefit from discounted ticket prices. Places are limited and events often sell out so early booking is recommended.
