A new report by the Women’s Media Center found that only 30% of all non-acting Oscar nominations went to women this year – up from 25% the year before. Of the 186 total nominees in those categories, 56 are women, 130 are men.
“The number of nominations for women increased in the 92nd Academy Awards, but not by much,” according to a Women’s Media Center analysis of the Oscars’ 19 non-acting categories, ahead of Sunday’s 92nd Academy Awards. “The overall percentage of female nominees in those categories rose by just 5 percentage points, from 25 percent last year to 30 percent this year, compared to 70 percent for male nominees.”
Last year’s report found that 51 of the 207 non-acting nominees were women, and that 156 were men – a larger pool of nominees in which fewer women were nominated than this year. This year’s report found “little progress for women in non-acting Oscar nominations,” and that 30% remains “a long way from gender parity.
