It's our 4th birthday!! This week we're asking you to help us celebrate by taking a moment to share your Empoword memories. It could be any memory! The day you found us, an article you read, an interview or workshop, something funny or sweet that happened behind the scenes when volunteering or working on an article with our editors, your first article or the article you're most proud of... You can share in writing or by tagging us in videos! You have all week so don't worry if you don't have time today. We would like to gather as many as possible by next Sunday, so set a reminder and come back to share with us some time during the week. #EmpowordBirthday

About us
Welcome to Empoword Journalism. We are an award-winning publication led by women that aims to unite and empower journalists across the globe. We were set up following an online workshop in May 2020 with Kay Burley from Sky News, where she encouraged attendees to document their experiences of Covid-19. We have now grown to 40 editors, nearly 200 contributors, and over 900 members on our Facebook group. We have also won Best Newcomer Publication and highly commended for Best Overall Digital Media at the 2021 SPA awards. We want our community to be as inclusive as possible, with a space for anyone who feels marginalised in the journalism industry. So do let us know if there are any improvements we can make. This is a place where you can get feedback on your work and create new content. Want to get involved? This is the Facebook group you need to be to join to contribute to our publication. In this group, you can get any information you need about upcoming projects, feedback on work, and a community of women who can help with any questions you may have about the industry. Are we on social media you may ask? Of course! This is where your work will be posted. We will always do our best to promote your work - it deserves to be seen. Give us a follow to see what we’re up to! The more you share - the further we can go.
