ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Minute

Available for over a year

Afghanistan is a country often in the headlines for bad news - but it’s also a nation that refuses to be defined by the security challenges and violence that it faces. In this ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Minute series we’re exploring five things you might not know about the country - including the increasing role of women in the country’s technology sector. Sana Safi, an Afghan journalist and presenter for ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Pashto has been talking to ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Minute’s Tom Bayly.
