| Resource Title | Behind the bylines: women Muslim journalists confronting gender, faith, and professional identity in Marawi’s community media |
| Date Issued | 4 July 2026 |
| Abstract | This study investigates the intersecting identities of Muslim women community journalists in Marawi City. Using an intersectionality framework, it examines how gender, religion, ethnicity, and the geopolitical landscape shape the lived experiences of journalists in a high-stakes environment. Data was gathered through photovoice with four practitioners and interviews with experts across gender, human rights, and Meranaw culture. The findings indicate that journalism in Marawi is a continuous negotiation of identities where gender, religion, profession, ethnicity, and geographical and political landscape and history are performed as a strategic means of survival. The study concludes that the realities of women journalists cannot be understood through gender alone; rather, they are shaped by overlapping layers of identities. By highlighting these complexities, the research advocates for more nuanced, intersectional approaches to media studies in marginalized or conflict-affected regions. |
