The International Women's Day begins with the conference "Women Journalists in the Spotlight"
Women in media play a key role in building a more just and informed society. Through their reporting, they bring new perspectives, challenge gender stereotypes, and drive positive change. In this spirit, the Association of Journalists of Kosovo and the Women Journalists Network, in collaboration with the British Embassy Prishtina, UN Women Kosovo, and the OSCE Mission in Kosovo, organized the regional conference "Women Journalists in the Spotlight."
