Welcome to the Tune in Dialogues podcast by ECSA – the European Composer and Songwriter Alliance. In this podcast, we guide you through ECSA’s work to promote and defend the rights of music authors in Europe.
In November 2024, ECSA published a report titled "Fostering Gender Equality among Music Creators”. One of the main issues the report touches upon is the issue of harassment and unwanted behaviour in the music sector. A majority of women in music experience sexual harassment, while most of them do not report these experiences, due to fear of retaliation or the belief that nothing would change. What can we do to accommodate those who experienced harassment or unwanted behaviour in the music industry in the best way? Can we learn from initiatives taken by ECSA member organisations? In this episode, ECSA delegates Delphine Ciampi-Ellis (UNAC), Jojo von Hertzen (Finnish Music Creators), and Aafke Romeijn (BAM Popauteurs) share their experiences and insights on initiatives taken on national level in their respective countries.
ECSA’s Tune in Dialogues podcast highlights the work of ECSA to defend and promote the rights of music authors across Europe. With interviews, conversations, and panel sessions featuring composers, songwriters, and other industry professionals, the podcast aims to update you on relevant developments on topics such as artificial intelligence, music streaming, composing for media and film, and diversity and inclusion in the creative sectors.
