Meet the Women Who are Changing the Face of Journalism

In newsrooms around the world, and especially in developing countries, the editorial decisions about what to cover and how to cover it are still primarily made by men. This means that issues of vital importance to women -- girls' education, forced marriage, rape -- may be underreported or trivialized. As we celebrate International Women's Day on March 8, Internews spotlights ten countries where women are playing a key role in their local media -- opening doors and opening minds. Join us for a tour of the world through the eyes of these inspiring women.
