Community Journalists.
Community Journalists are women, girls and youth from the communities themselves - trained to document and share what is really happening in their villages, schools and health facilities. They tell the stories the mainstream sometimes misses.
What Community Journalists do
Document lived realities
Use phones, audio recorders and notebooks to capture stories where they happen.
Centre dignity
Tell stories with consent, accuracy and respect - never extracting trauma for views.
Bridge to media partners
Share verified stories with our Media Champions and editorial partners to extend reach.
Strengthen accountability
Document service delivery, policy gaps and community wins as ongoing evidence.

- Hands-on training in interviewing, mobile journalism, ethics and digital safety.
