*NEW      IWIC Asia Pacific Launches      NEW*

International Women in Communications Asia Pacific (IWIC APAC) International Women in Communications (IWIC) was launched in Japan in 1993. IWIC Asia Pacific is an offshoot organisation started in 2005 to cater to a larger audience of women in communications in the Asia-Pacific region.

Our goal is to promote professionalism, the free flow of information and the advancement of women in communications. IWIC's main purpose is to bring women together to mentor and learn from each other.

 
IWIC Japan members include professionals in every field that fits under the "communications" umbrella. Some work for major news organizations, public relations firms, advertising firms, multimedia businesses or internet service providers. Others are freelance interpreters or translators, website designers, writers or photographers. Still others are communications students, or people considering a career change. It is envisioned IWIC APAC membership and activities will mirror IWIC Japan.

 
The IWIC APAC Mailing List is our main form of communication. It is free of charge and open to anyone who supports our goals. Please email iwic AT gol DOT com to find out more about becoming a member of IWIC.

IWIC members value a network of professional women committed to similar goals. We discuss professional issues, learn new skills, become better informed about each other's areas of expertise, and have fun! We believe a sense of community is crucial to advancing the status of professional women, and to enjoying our work.

IWIC also maintains our own blog, encouraging members to post and comment on topics of interest and concern to women in communications worldwide. The blog address is www.iwic.blogspot.com. Postings are moderated. Please send submissions to iwicjapan AT gmail DOT com.
