“Last week, I was a news journalist. Today, I can’t even write under my own name or say where I am from or where I am. My whole life has been obliterated in just a few days.” The words from an anonymous female journalist is just one of the stories that the Network of Women in Media, India has shared as the Taliban takeover in Afghanistan continues. The NMWI asked female journalists in the region what they needed most. The answers? Money and visas. NMWI is working for the first by raising money with a print sale and, for the second, urging the Indian government to extend support and visas for journalists and their families.

Journalists for Afghanistan is a group that arose from NMWI last month. Its first project is an online print sale featuring images from Afghanistan that span two decades. The photographs, donated by the Associated Press, are the work of photojournalists including David Guttenfelder, Emilio Morenatti, Anja Niedringhaus, Wally Santana, Richard Vogel, Farzana Wahidy and many more. The images depict scenes in Afghanistan from women carrying laundry to children playing, from girls denied school to scenes of soldiers. The print sale, the organization says, is both to raise money for female journalists and help tell their stories.

After the Taliban took over Afghanistan last month, the NWMI asked female journalists what they could do to help. One told NMWI that “If you don’t have money, you can do nothing to save your life.” Another said that “The biggest help is to facilitate visas for journalists to safer countries to keep us alive and hear our voice against injustice and violations.”

The NWMI also called out the IFJ South Asia Press Freedom Report, which notes that eight journalists, half of them women, were killed between May 2020 and April 2021. The report also notes the resignation of at least 100, with half that number leaving the country.

NWMI is working with the Associated Press as well as the Media Safety and Solidarity fund. The organizations said that 100 percent of the proceeds from the sales will be used to help female journalists in the region. The list includes funding safe houses and evacuations. NMWI says the funds can also go towards small media start-ups and helping these journalists tell their stories.

The fundraiser is selling 10×15 prints for $100 plus shipping costs. Images are shipped as unsigned roll prints. To participate in the fundraiser, visit the Journalists for Afghanistan print sale and follow the group on Instagram.
