Amwaj.media

This is just a website. But Amwaj.media is also more than just a website. Our mission is to offer unparalleled coverage of Iran, Iraq and the countries of the Arabian Peninsula. Amwaj.media offers innovative Media Monitoring, which features our take on what can be read between the lines, along with trends to keep an eye on. We publish News, Opinion and Analysis from our network of contributors, breaking down the most pressing topics of the day and providing original insight into the stories that don’t necessarily make it to the headlines. Through our Debate section, we offer a long overdue platform for inclusive engagement. Importantly, Amwaj.media takes direct aim at the language barrier by publishing all content in Arabic, English and Persian. Going one step further, our unique language swiping capability gives all readers seamless access to content in all three languages—offering our contributors a greater audience, and for our multilingual readership, a new level of depth. Amwaj.media is also novel in its embrace of new technologies to offer a different way of reading news. Designed for readers on the go, we provide condensed versions of our full-length Articles via our ‘Bottom Line’ feature. We also display in-house data visualizations on our main page, showcasing our commitment to injecting more quantitative research into the conversation. Founded in January 2021, Amwaj.media is independently funded and operates as a service provider. The Editor is Mr. Mohammad Ali Shabani. We prioritize the safety and security of our team while considering our output as the result of a team effort. We have therefore chosen to anonymize most of our team’s own output. Amwaj.media aims to be the primary portal of News, Opinion and Analysis on the region, from the region. We are at the beginning of a long journey. Please join us on the ride.
