Nibras Al Mamory was born in Iraq in the 1970s. This 47-year-old political journalist and mother of three children is one of the figures of the Iraqi media landscape. She made a name for herself in the mid-2000s by presenting political programmes on several channels in the country and later became head of media relations with the head of parliament in Baghdad.
But even before becoming a journalist, Nibras Al Mamory was a feminist. In 2011, she founded the Iraqi Journalists' Forum, an organisation that supports women's rights and their place in the media. 
From her debut as a journalist in 1992, at the end of the Gulf War, until her return to the field in 2019 to follow the demonstrators who will obtain the resignation of Prime Minister Abdel-Mehdi, Nibras Al Mamory looks back on almost 30 years spent in the service of news in her country.

Correspondances #8 - Nibras Al Mamoury, the voice of Irakian journalists

Telling the world in 2021 is no easy task. On the one hand, there is a growing mistrust of the media all over the world - a world where the truth is no longer always clear.
On the other hand, press freedom is under threat, more than ever: according to RSF, in 2020, 387 journalists were imprisoned, including a growing number of women.
A troubled period, in which CFI, the French media development agency, wanted to tell the story of these women and men who work every day, all around the world, to inform the public. In whose name do they get up for every morning? What connects a Vietnamese TV presenter, a Yemeni journalist and a Cameroonian blogger?
Over the past few months, journalist Camille Diao has had the opportunity and chance to talk to reporters, bloggers, actors and actresses from media around the world. They spoke at length about their journeys, their inspirations, their struggles. And one thing led to another, between these women and men who live in the four corners of the planet, a certain number of correspondences emerged: common convictions, ideas, courage, passion. Each of them has benefited, at some point in their career, from CFI's support.
There are ten of them. They come from Benin, Myanmar, Burkina Faso, the Ivory Coast, Cameroon, Egypt, Iraq, Lebanon, Vietnam and Yemen. They are as inspired as they are inspiring, and they are about to tell you their stories.
Correspondances, the newsmakers' podcast, is a series brought to you by CFI, the French media development agency.
