UNESCO and partners launch Global Alliance on Media and Gender UNESCO The conference's Final Statement defines GAMG's overarching mission as follows: "We are committed to gender equality and women's empowerment across generations to fully participate and enabling women's access to expression and decision-making by promoting a gender-inclusive media and communication environment that reaches gender equality in media organizations."   The Bangkok forum took as its reference point the 1995 Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action at the Fourth World Conference on Women. In this statement, the United Nations identified gender inequality in media – in access, representation and the dearth of female decision-makers – as a

key area of concern. However, progress since has been fragmented and lacking the strength of a global movement.
