Partner with Zan Times and have our brave women journalists lead your coverage.

Zan Times is a women-led, investigative newsroom that covers human rights violations in Afghanistan. We investigate and report stories from inside and outside Afghanistan.

We are aware of the challenges, dangers, and opportunities of working in the country and are doing our part in keeping the world informed on what is happening in Taliban-controlled Afghanistan. Since our inception in August 2022, we have produced close to 100 in-depth and investigative reports.

Our team is led by Zahra Nader, a PhD candidate in Gender, Feminist and Women’s Studies

Zahra Nader has more than a decade of news experience covering Afghanistan. As well, our team is made up of a dozen experienced and dedicated journalists who live and work across Afghanistan. Our team speaks Farsi, Pashto, Uzbeki, Turkmani, and English.

The partnership can go two ways:

  1. If you have a story idea, our team on the ground can investigate and provide raw or edited reporting for your story idea.
  2. If you are interested in covering Afghanistan, but you are not sure about the topic, then reach out to us. We have plenty of story ideas to share, and can also offer guidance in how to shape and refine your topic.
