The Association of Media Women in Kenya, (AMWIK), is a national media Association established in 1983 and registered under the Societies Act as a non-profit membership organisation for women journalists from the print, electronic media and other areas of communication. The Association was founded prior to the United Nation’s Third World Women's Conference held in Nairobi in 1985 by women in middle and senior management levels in the media. Its membership comprises employees of various media houses, Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) and other institutions as well as independent content producers.

The Association of Media Women in Kenya (AMWIK), with support from the Commonwealth Secretariat, wish to inform you that due to the post election violence in the country we have had to postpone the Regional Conference on Engendering Macro Economics and Trade Policies within the context of globalisation initially set for 29 to 31 January 2008 to a date to be communicated to you once the situation stabilizes .

Our sincere apologies for the inconviences that this may have caused and we shall keep you posted once we set new dates for the conference.
