Wajiha Wahidi, a journalist from Afghanistan, now broadcasts for Begum TV in Paris, an exile station supporting Afghan women deprived of education and professional opportunities under Taliban rule. The station has expanded since its inception, providing vital information, psychological support, and entertainment to Afghans, especially 1.4 million girls who cannot attend school. Wahidi's resilience, along with her colleagues, reflects the essential role of media in empowering marginalized communities amidst adversity and the humanitarian crisis in Afghanistan post-Taliban takeover.
The work of Begum TV is crucial for Afghan girls barred from education, as well as women excluded from public life due to stringent Taliban decrees.
Wajiha Wahidi's transition from Afghan journalist to broadcasting in Paris symbolizes the resilience of media professionals who strive to empower women amidst oppressive regimes.
