The Journalism Essentials project has played a crucial role in empowering Iraqi women not only in the field of journalism but also in broader societal contexts. It has fostered positive change within their communities, thanks to the support of partners like the Rudaw Media Network, The SEED Foundation, Internews, and the Google News Initiative. The UNFPA-led Journalism Essentials project has empowered over 160 Iraqi women with crucial journalism skills, particularly focusing on both traditional and social media platforms, and investigative journalism. This has enabled them to effectively address pressing issues impacting women and girls, such as child marriage and violence. Due to its significant impact, the project was honored with the esteemed Stevie Awards for Best Social Program of the Year in the Middle East and North Africa region.
