In 2011, IREX implemented "Camera as Voice" training with the goal of empowering Azerbaijani women to express themselves through film making. More than 100 girls from across 10 regions in Azerbaijan attended and began engaging in conversations surrounding critical issues, through documentary film making.
Watch how 14-year-old Aytan, participant in the 'Camera as Voice' training, is now following her dream of becoming a film maker and breaking down barriers.
This project was a part of USAID [5] funded Azerbajian New Media Project, implemented by IREX.
