Faking it - Research from the Womens Forum Australia. What really goes on when young women pick up a glossy women's lifestyle magazine? What have psychologists, sociologists and other researchers found out about how they affect women's health and wellbeing? What messages are really being sent through these magazines? How do advertising images affect us? What do magazines have to do with eating disorders?
About-Face aims to combat negative and distorted images of women.
Mission Australia exists to help people in need - whoever they are and wherever they come from.
Young Media Australia is a unique national community organisation whose members share a strong commitment to the promotion of the healthy development of Australian children. Their particular interest and expertise is in the role that media experiences play in that development.
The Image File - documentary due for release mid-2008. Based on a series of conversations with women about body image and identity. Combining low-cost filmmaking with new research techniques, it is built on the idea of merging digital video technology with online communities such as MySpace.
