ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

The Press Institute for Women in the Developing World

Okay, imagine you're playing a game with your friends - but sometimes your friends don't let you play because you're a girl. That's not fair, right? Well, sometimes that happens in real life too when girls and women want to be journalists and report the news.

That's where the Press Institute for Women in the Developing World comes in! They are like a special grown-up club that helps girls and women in places where it's hard to be a journalist. They teach them things like how to write stories, take pictures, and use computers so they can share the news with people in their communities.

The Press Institute for Women in the Developing World also helps girls and women who face challenges like not being able to go to school because they have to work or because they don't have enough money. They make sure that these girls and women have opportunities to learn and succeed in their journalism careers.

So, in summary, the Press Institute for Women in the Developing World helps girls and women become journalists by teaching them new skills and giving them opportunities to succeed even if they face challenges like not being able to go to school or being discriminated against because they are girls and women.
