Valley Voices 2 - Enhancing political participation of women through local media engagement

Women will become more visible through media reports by women, with women, for women produced using smartphones. Through this programme, our work in North West Pakistan continues. Women citizen journalists and staff at our local partner, the Tribal News Network (TNN), will be empowered through training and mentoring to use the latest tools in reporting (mobile and digital journalism) as well as to develop audio-visual productions to attract untapped women audiences through inclusive reporting.
