Abstract
The paper takes as its starting point how journalists’ safety is a precondition for free expression and free media. Based on interviews and discussions with experienced female war and conflict journalists from different countries worldwide, the discussion evolves around questions linked to what particular challenges and opportunities women journalists face, and how their security best can be ensured when covering war and conflict zones.
