'I believe that for one's country one should live, not die'

Journalists living in exile don't feel safe. They take a high personal risk and oftentimes need to hide their identity. A Russian journalist and participant of our Space for Freedom program speaks about her life in exile.

DW Akademie is conducting the "Space for Freedom" project as a network partner of the German government's Hannah Arendt Initiative. Through this initiative, the Federal Foreign Office and the Federal Commissioner for Culture and Media are supporting journalists, media workers and defenders of freedom of expression in crisis and conflict areas, as well as those living in exile in Germany.
