A hand-drawn watercolor editorial illustration depicting a woman journalist seen from behind, wearing a blue vest labeled "PRESS" and holding a microphone. She stands in a smoky, chaotic war zone with military helicopters flying in the background and colorful explosion bursts to the right. Behind her, two soldiers in olive and camouflage uniforms appear to be grabbing or approaching her. A speech bubble in the upper right reads: "For women war reporters, the battlefield has two frontlines." 

The illustration is by #AnupamaBijur, a #NWMI member and conveys the dual threats — combat and gender-based violence — faced by women in conflict journalism.

Anupama does a monthly feature for #NWMI called #InkSights which is commentary on media, gender and their intersections

For women war reporters, the battlefield has two frontlines.

When you read a report on the US-Israel’s war on Iran...look at the byline. If it’s written by a woman, read the report knowing women journalists covering conflict zones face two kinds of dangers.

Illustrated poster showing a woman seated behind a laptop, raising her hands to shield her face as large gray, abstract shapes loom over her. Handwritten text reads “AI is coming for our jobs,” with the word “women” added in red over “our,” and a header above says “AI-powered & technology-facilitated violence against women on the rise.” The image uses dark tech-themed borders to suggest digital threat and pressure.

Nitish Kumar’s electoral lesson: Ignore the woman voter at your peril Since he first took office in 2005, Nitish Kumar has designed programmes to meet the needs of women and girls and built himself a loyal vote base.

"Bihar continues to lag...but there can be no doubt about its many gains: female literacy (from 51.5% in 2015-16 to 55% in 2019-20); paid employment (20% 2015-16 to 25.6% in 2019-20)."
