Support Women Journalists at CSW69: Amplify Their Voices on the Global Stage
We urgently seek your support to send three courageous female journalists to the 69th Commission on the Status of Women (CSW69) at the United Nations in New York City this March. These women—hailing from Afghanistan, the Philippines, and the West Bank—have dedicated their lives to amplifying marginalized voices, exposing injustices, and reporting on critical issues affecting women worldwide.
Despite their tireless efforts to shine a light on stories that often go unheard, they face immense financial hardship and systemic barriers that make attending this crucial global event impossible without your help. These journalists work under extremely challenging and sometimes dangerous conditions, risking their safety to defend press freedom and gender equality.
By attending CSW69, these fearless women will have the opportunity to:
Share firsthand testimony on the realities of women in journalism and media, including the challenges, threats, and censorship they face.
Engage with global policymakers, activists, and media leaders to push for stronger protections and support for women journalists.
Highlight both the gains and alarming reversals experienced in the fight for press freedom, directly aligning with Section J of the Beijing Declaration, which addresses women and the media.
Network with international allies and organizations to build sustainable solutions that advance gender equality in journalism.
This is more than just a trip—it is a chance to ensure their voices are heard at one of the most influential platforms for women's rights and media advocacy.
Your generous contribution will cover essential costs such as travel, accommodation, and logistical expenses, making it possible for these remarkable journalists to be part of this pivotal conversation.
Every dollar brings them closer to the UN. Every donation strengthens press freedom. Every act of generosity amplifies the voices that the world needs to hear.
Join us in standing with these women. Donate today and be a champion for truth, justice, and equality in journalism.
