Ariana Global News is building trust and identity across Afghanistan — and we want you to join us. We are inviting girls and women from every province to become volunteer journalists for a women‑led news network that puts local voices first. No prior experience is needed; all you need is a mobile phone and a desire to tell the stories that matter in your community.
Why join Ariana Global News?
Ariana Global News publishes directly to Google News, and many volunteer reports have ranked #1 worldwide. That means your local voice can reach global audiences, influence the international conversation, and bring attention to issues that often go unheard.
Joining our team gives you:
- Real-world journalism experience and a platform that amplifies your reporting.
- Full training in citizen journalism, reporting ethics, and digital media.
- A supportive, women‑led community committed to safety, accuracy, and impact.
- A share of revenue: volunteers receive 30% of any sponsorships earned from their news category.

Our training is practical and designed for beginners. You will learn:
- Mobile journalism basics: how to shoot video, record clear audio, and capture strong photos using your phone.
- Reporting fundamentals: finding stories, interviewing safely and respectfully, and building reliable sources.
- Verification and ethics: fact‑checking, avoiding misinformation, and reporting responsibly.

Training is hands‑on and delivered by experienced editors and trainers who know how to turn raw field reporting into credible news stories.
How volunteers earn and grow
Volunteering with Ariana Global News is both meaningful and practical. In addition to training and publication opportunities, volunteers receive a clear share of sponsorship revenue: 30% of sponsorships tied to the news category where their work appears.
When your local reports are picked up by international outlets, the potential grows. Increased visibility can lead to wider sponsorships, contributor opportunities, and a stronger platform to advocate for your community.
Who should apply
We welcome girls and women across Afghanistan who want to:
- Tell local stories with courage and integrity.
- Learn journalism skills using only a mobile phone.
- Build their profile as trusted local reporters.
- Connect with a women‑led network that supports their safety and growth.
No formal education in journalism is required. If you are curious, observant, and ready to learn, Ariana Global News will give you the tools and support to succeed.

Our women‑led team is dedicated to building trust in media through accuracy, fairness, and community engagement. By reporting local realities honestly and respectfully, volunteers help shape a stronger identity for their neighborhoods and provinces. Your stories can challenge stereotypes, spotlight resilience, and create pathways for change.
