From Tbilisi to Baku—stories of activism, hope, and media freedom in Azerbaijan and Georgia.
In this special episode, I take you back to Tbilisi, Georgia, one year after my initial media training visit in 2015.
This time, I reconnect with some of the passionate individuals I first met and sit down with new voices who are using online radio and digital media to challenge the status quo in the South Caucasus.
You’ll hear from Zamira, a fearless advocate for digital activism in Azerbaijan, as well as two other remarkable change-makers working to empower youth, promote gender equality, and give ethnic Azerbaijani communities a voice.
Often in places where being heard isn’t easy.
These reflective conversations reveal the power of independent media in regions where mainstream narratives often fall short.
It’s a story of creativity, courage, and connection.
One broadcast at a time.
🎧 Whether you’re interested in media freedom, cross-cultural collaboration, or just love human stories that matter, this episode is for you.
