Role model
videos are created to highlight the mission, challenges, and successes of
female peacebuilders, social activists, and community workers. Their stories of
countering violent extremism are shared in their own words. Till 2021, 25 role
model videos were produced and out of those, 15 were created during Media Baithak training in 2020/21 and rest
of the 10 in Media Baithak training in 2021/22. Separate screening of these
videos also took place. First 15 videos were screened in Media Baithak
training and rest of the 10 videos were screened in 3 different areas of
Karachi including Sachal Goth, Chakiwara, and Ibrahim Hyderi. The female

instance, peacebuilder’s intervention and influence in the community,
activities performed, the role she is performing as a peacebuilder, most
importantly how inspiring her story is.
