Zeyad asks for a campaign [1] to remember murdered journalist Atwar Bahjat [2]. He repeats a suggestion [3] made by Egyptian journalist Mona Eltahawy:
Al-Arabiya, entrepreneurs in the Arab world and journalism schools in the region should be encouraged to set up a scholarship programme in her honour that would fund the education of female journalists in Iraq as well as in the Arab world.
Zeyad adds:
Whoever killed Atwar, had in fact killed Iraq and killed that tiny glimmer of hope. I believe the above suggestion is the least we can do to preserve the beautiful memory of Atwar Bahjat. … Let us know if you can help with this noble endeavor.
