Mesopotamia Women Journalists Platform
Zone d'intervention Turkey
L'association The objectives of the platform are to provide educational support and workshops to women journalists, to report on the problems of women journalists and the rights violations they face, to provide legal support, to fight for the use of gender-based language in the media, and to establish national and international networks with women/journalist organizations. This is done through 3 poles of activities: Continue to monitor actions against women journalists and cover awareness and solidarity activities (such as sending books, cards to women journalists in prison). Continue to organize trainings on women's journalism and gender equality in the media. Develop a template and organize trainings on how to do "monitoring" of cases in a more professional way. This activity will be organized with a trainer who is an expert in monitoring/evaluation of rights violations.

This project aims to transform the role of the media in this mutual interaction between media and society into a positive form of guaranteeing equality between women and men. The fact that the media is a mass communications tool that can reach all segments of society through newspapers, television and digital media also shows that it can be effective in promoting gender equality and transforming mentalities. +plus
