Categories: Middle East & North Africa, Saudi Arabia, Digital Activism, Technology, Women & Gender

Saudi blogger Ahmed Al Omran reports [1] that we will soon be able to hear the voices of young Saudi women through blogs initiated by their teacher. “Mrs. Lobat Asadi who teaches English at Al-Yamamah College in Riyadh has sent me a link [2] to her project website that is used as a part of the course she is giving there…I've never come across anything like this happening here in Saudi Arabia. Mrs. Asadi also provides links (check out the left sidebar) to blogs by her students. She thinks many people will enjoy reading the thoughts of these young Saudi women, and that ‘they are much more intelligent than people give them credit for,'” he notes.
