The International Women’s Podcast Awards is to take place on Wednesday 19 June at the IET London: Savoy Place.
Now in its 4th year, the event will showcase the work and creative excellence of podcasters across multiple categories. A panel of judges consisting of podcasters, journalists, and experienced professionals will evaluate the submitted entries and select the winners for the categories.
“We are thrilled to announce the date and venue for this year’s International Women’s Podcast Awards,” said Naomi Mellor, the founder of the awards. “Podcasting is a powerful medium that provides a platform for people to tell their story, showcase their work, and have their voice heard.
“Our goal with these awards remains to raise the voices of women and people of diverse genders in podcasting, to bring together the podcasting community, and to celebrate the exceptional work being done worldwide.
“We encourage all podcasters to submit their entries and be a part of this event. The IWPA Bursary will also once again be open, offering complimentary entries and tickets to anyone, worldwide.”
Laura Norton, IET Head of Equality, Diversity and Inclusion commented: “We’re delighted to welcome Everybody Media to IET London: Savoy Place for the International Women’s Podcast Awards 2024.
“This female-led organisation supporting women and people of diverse genders is very much aligned to our goal of promoting and raising awareness of equality, diversity, and inclusion across all sectors.
“It’s great to see inspiring events like this taking place in our fantastic venue, amplifying and recognising under-represented voices in the media and audio content creation space.”
The International Women’s Podcast Awards is open to podcasts from across the world, with a category introduced in 2023 for podcasts produced in languages other than English. Entries for the awards will open on Monday 29 February, and further details regarding the entry process, categories, and eligibility criteria will be available on the website.
