To make positive change, we must make space to listen, learn, and take action. Â
Â
As a member of our music community, your participation in amplifying women’s voices and the Women In the Mix study is one of the many ways you can demonstrate your commitment to fostering a positive, thriving industry for all.Â
Â
This International Women’s Day, we invite women in the industry and allies to join us on social media to uplift women and inspire creators and professionals to drive positive change. Please use the graphics to post on social media—Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, or Twitter. Don't forget to tag and follow the Recording Academy—use the hashtag #AmplifyWomen in your posts. We thank you for your commitment to making our music community a better place.Â

Allies and advocates for women within and outside the music industry are welcome to download custom graphic overlays to demonstrate your commitment to revisit systems that are holding women in music back from advancing and feeling heard, respected, and compensated fairly. We thank you for your participation and support.

These images can be layered on top of your own photos as a frame. They are provided in sizes specific to Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. (Instructions on how to use the overlays are below)
