16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence

In this special live-recorded episode of the Journalists for Human Rights (JHR) podcast, Lisa LaFlamme hosts an extraordinary conversation marking the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence. Joined by Hanna Liubakova, a Belarusian journalist and Kiran Nazish, founder of the Coalition for Women in Journalism, this episode explores the increasing violence and targeted attacks against women journalists worldwide.

From Hanna’s firsthand account of covering protests in Belarus to Kiran’s insights on documenting and advocating for women journalists in over 145 countries, this discussion delves into the systemic challenges women face and the critical role they play in exposing corruption, inequality and human rights abuses. The episode also highlights the importance of public awareness and international support in protecting press freedom.
