Hi, I'm Sham Jaff and I curate news from the Global South.

Since 2014, every Monday, I curate news from Africa, Asia and Latin America and put it all into one email. I don't just copy and paste, I rewrite the news, from 30+ different sources, give recommendations on what to watch, read and listen to every week and sprinkle some fun and good news here and there.More than 15,000 people read it on the regular. It's completely free.I'm a freelance journalist based in Berlin. You can read more about me on my personal website.
