Desigualdad laboral : estudio cualitativo sobre el rol de la mujer en la dirección audiovisual ecuatoriana.

Abstract

This research demonstrates the level of women's participation in high positions within the audiovisual industry from the year 2000 to 2020. The Ecuadorian audiovisual industry has been evolving over the years. However, the role of women as leaders has been largely overlooked, primarily due to a lack of trust in their gender. This investigation aims to thoroughly identify the causes behind this ongoing gender disparity. To carry out this investigative project, a comprehensive review of filmography from the years 2000 to 2020 was conducted, highlighting the participation of both genders in high-ranking positions such as direction, production, and photography. Through conducting interviews with audiovisual producers and organizing focus groups with spectators from various professional profiles, insights into the perception of women and their limited representation in the audiovisual workforce will be revelead."
