The theme for International Women's Day this year is "Choose To Challenge". The aim of the event is for us to write an open letter to our industry addressing the lack of representation of queer women in advertising. This is related to representation in ads but also working across agencies, brands, publishers, etc.
A collective open letter to the big advertising groups and top advertisers. We envision this event as an invitation for us to write an open letter to the industry. 100 people, 1 hour, a lot to say, bring your own lunch and let's talk.
What's happening?
Virtual event - Round Table
Discuss the lack of queer female representation in advertising and discuss on next steps to address this challenge through an open letter to the industry.
The content of the letter will be created from the questions and opinions during the event.
