Qarib celebrating international women’s day

Qarib celebrating international women’s day: She has a role

Can you imagine media coverage in the world free of gender bias, stereotypes and discrimination? On the occasion of the International Women’s Day on March 8th the Qarib program celebrates women active in media in the Middle East who #BreakTheBias, and who show that we can forge women’s equality together. This day is an opportunity for us to highlight media initiatives and women who actively increase the visibility, the participation and the voices of women in media operations and content in the region.

We therefore invite everyone to join the debate, share our content and contribute actively to our online celebration, with live audio- and audiovisual interactive shows from dawn till dusk, in cooperation with our media partners from Lebanon, Palestine, Jordan and Iraq. You can join the celebration through our website (add link or hyperlink), on Facebook and Twitter, see the full program here and below.

Qarib supports media outlets operating in Jordan, Lebanon, Iraq and Palestine in order to boost social cohesion, promote the integration of communities and encourage public debate.
