International media coverage of the Arab world is dominated by the work of Western correspondents - meaning we often view stories about those complex, interconnected conflicts through one particular lens. But a growing number of intrepid Arab women, whose access to and understanding of their subjects are vastly different than their Western counterparts, are working tirelessly to shape nuanced narratives about their homelands through their work as reporters and photojournalists. In 'Our Women on the Ground,' nineteen of these women tell us, in their own words, about what it's like to report on conflicts that are (quite literally) close to home.
