Words from the Unheard Wednesday, April 6th

As conflict continues in the Middle East and North Africa, journalists (and readers) are scrambling to find authentic reporting from local sources. At the same time, young bloggers in regions like these are struggling to have their voices heard.

 

Global Voices is an online blogging community that brings underrepresented populations into the global conversation. Founded in 2004, the organization curates, aggregates, and shares content from citizen media in over 150 countries. Check them out to read what bloggers from all over the world are saying about topics ranging from taboos in Lebanese social media to the significance of India’s cricket victory.

As they say at Global Voices, “The world is talking, are you listening?”
