Abstract
Profound advances in the digitalization of video equipment and Internet technology have enabled public participation in various forms of media production during the 1990s to the mid-2000s. Production opportunities for women, that used to be disconnected from those technologies, have been increasing and the number of women using cam-eras has grown since the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Accident. This report will focus on how women have been engaging with OurPlanet-TV - a non-profit community media organization - and how video and other media technologies have become a part of their daily lives, as well as an important tool for self-expression.
