Saba Chaman - Being a woman and a journalist in Afghanistan - Radio Begum - Version English #3

  • Summary

  • How does a woman journalist live or survive under the Taliban regime? How do you fight for information in a world of censorship and threats? What coping and survival strategies have the radio station's founder, Hamida Aman, Saba Chaman, the editor un chief and her team found to honour Radio Begum's mission to help Afghan girls and women?


    In this interview you will hear from Saba Chaman, the radio station's editor-in-chief from 2021 to 2024. Through its educational programmes and broadcasts, Radio Begum provides vital health, intellectual, psychological and spiritual support to Afghan girls and women.


    Every day, they have access to :

    * 6 hours of radio classes in Dari and Pashto


    * a two-hour psychological support programme


    * programmes offering advice on well-being, health, gynaecology, nutrition and parenting support


    * a programme offering spiritual advice


    * an evening programme with poetry and humorous exchanges



    Apartheid laws, which make women invisible and prevent them from making their voices heard in the public arena, are accelerating the question of the survival of this medium. Saba fled Kabul in August 2024 and now continues her work in Paris as part of the Begum TV team, which broadcasts its programmes by satellite in Afghanistan.

    Songs: videos of Afghan women posted on social networks (including Taiba Sulaimani). These videos were made at the time of the announcement of the new decrees of 22 August 2024 banning women from making their voices heard in public spaces.


    The ‘Adventure’ podcast: Who are the adventurers? What different meanings can be given to the term? And what is the gap between what you imagine of them and their adventures and what they really are and do? In this podcast we meet adventurers of all kinds.
