Ethical internships

Campaigns

The media, arts and entertainment industries are experiencing profound change, but MEAA's strong campaigns continue to support the rights and interests of our members and open up new opportunities for them to inform and entertain.

Bring Them Here

“We believe that to continue to detain these three individuals without charge or trial undermines freedom of expression and the right to seek asylum.”

Get Real On Rates

“If we secure standard crew rates, we secure a prosperous future for the Australian screen industry”

Equity Wellness

“The reports speak for themselves; people are suffering for their ‘art’ and they just don’t have to.” Eve Morey, Actor and Equity Wellness Committee Member

Hands Off Our ABC

“With commercial business models — whether print or broadcast — failing, newsrooms shrinking, drama budgets dwindling, funding the ABC to tell Australian stories is more essential than ever.”

Ethical internships

Internships have long been recognised as a way for students or graduates to gain practical experience but they should never be a source of free labour.
