“We are absolutely thrilled to build a strong team to work in Pakistan for the incredible work that women in journalism are doing in this country,” said Kiran Nazish, Co-Founder and Director of the Coalition For Women In Journalism.

“During our research to gauge the landscape in Pakistan for women journalists, we found that 69% of female colleagues said they faced harassment on the job, while 24.1% said they did not. That is an alarming number and we hope with a stronger support network in this country, we can improve the condition through advocacy and awareness.”
