All-female newsroom launched in Somalia to widen media’s scope

The pioneering Bilan project, funded by UN, will report on gender-based violence, women in politics and female entrepreneurs

Led by one of the few female senior news producers in the country, the team of six will produce content for TV, radio and online media on issues such as gender-based violence, women in politics and female entrepreneurs.
Crucially, they will have the autonomy to make editorial decisions.


Congrats my somali sisters.

This could be amazing for providing insight for the bad thing that happen to women in our community that are just swept under the rug. But I hope this doesn't become some western puppet show spouting weird feminist talking points.

Is funded by u.n so yes its expected to have western influence but the positive side of things is that they will have autonomy on editorial decisions
