About Us
The Rah-e Madanyat newspaper/Daily (RMD), a media outlet in exile, currently publishes digitally from Germany. It was unable to continue its free activity following the change in Afghanistan’s political system in August 2021 and the unfavorable situation of human rights and freedom of expression in this country.
RMD was established in 2011 in Kabul with the aim of supporting democracy and defending human rights and is not affiliated with any political group.
The RMD has consistently supported women’s rights and their human desires since its establishment. “From Hidden Struggles to Political Participation” was a series of interviews with active women in 2013 and 2014, a special project of this media. The aim of these talks was to highlight women’s rights and their equal role in political and social participation:
This newspaper launched “Youth, Leadership, and Development” in 2015 as a series of dialogues under the name “Young Politicians.” We conducted these discussions with educated youth who had turned to political and social work networks in 2011, focusing on the active and healthy role of youth in politics and society. The German Heinrich Boll Foundation (HBS) financially supported these two programs.
Cartoons have been an important genre for this newspaper. RMD newspaper’s cartoon entitled “Corruption is forbidden,” which participated in the United Nations “Political Cartoon” World Competition in 2016, was able to win the fourth place among the top 10 cartoons in the world. This was the first time in the history of Afghan journalism that a newspaper from this country achieved this success:
