More to Her Story is an independent newsroom reporting on the lives of women and girls in the places the world most often overlooks. Our journalism is grounded in the belief that women’s stories are central to understanding the world as it actually is — and imagining how it could be better.

We publish original reporting, investigations, expert analysis, and first-person accounts from some of the most underreported places on earth. From conflict zones to closed societies, we document the social, political, religious, and cultural forces shaping women’s lives, freedom, and opportunity.

Proximity is central to our work — from women and girls on the ground to the journalists, experts, and local leaders who understand them best. For us, documenting women’s lives and leadership is both a moral imperative and a strategic necessity for lasting peace and progress.

Expect deeply reported features, sharp analysis, and firsthand accounts from women and girls around the world. You will leave seeing women and girls as central to the story, not peripheral.
