According to its chief editor Hinda Abdi Mohamoud, Bilan Media gives Somali women “a space to work” and “real editorial power”. Somalia’s first female-only media outlet covers topics including climate change, people living with albinism and HIV/AIDS, while also encouranging period education for young girls. However, it’s not an easy industry for Somali women to work in. “You can get trapped […] you can be attacked,” our guest explains. But this seems to make her even more determined: “It’s the thing that we want to change […] that people believe that women cannot do the hard work.” She spoke to us in Perspective.
