Kurdish TV channel for ME women’s liberation
15-3-2018
Coinciding with the International Women’s Day, the Kurdish women’s JIN TV station started a test broadcast from its offices and studios in Europe, Bashur- Kurdistan Iraq and Rojava- Kurdistan Syria. The women-only television’s slogan, ‘Women’s voice… the face of women’ sums up and accentuates its emancipatory human rights rhetoric in a region that has for long portrayed a woman as a minor against a free and complete human being, suffering multi-faceted discrimination and persecution. The multilingual broadcasting station (Kurdish, Arabic, Turkish, Farsi and Assyrian) presents an ambitious attempt to launch an interactive women’s satellite platform. It serves as a communications network for women in the Middle East and the world at large and a forum to discuss complex issues of women’s liberation, in definition, mechanism and constraints impeding its realization. And despite the dominant Kurdish identity of the station, yet it certainly concerns every woman, regardless of her national, religious or ethnic background.
