Today we put our Kenian correspondent Bertha in the spotlights!
Bertha is known for her always changing haircuts. But especially for her impressive stories about strong women.
She made a story about a miss-beauty competition in a women's jail and a story about self-defense for older women to prevent themselves from being raped. Watch a collage of her work here.

Correspondent Carren from Kenya works almost two years for Metropolis now. She has made a lot of good but also funny reports since. That's why we put her in the spotlights this week with a collage of her work for Metropolis.

Besides her correspondence for our program, she is very active with other programs. She made a web series for Amnesty called Meet the Muthuku's, where the daily life of a family in the slums of Nairobi is shown. A selection of this episodes will be showed at the Young Amnesty Film Days this weekend, part of the Movies That Matter festival in The Hague.
While the leaders of the world discuss the state of the environment in long sessions in the global summit at Copenhagen, the correspondents of Metropolis set out to look for the world’s real environmental heroes: those brave individuals who’ve committed themselves fully to a greener, cleaner and sustainable planet. Whatever the cost.
