Sandra Maribel Sánchez

Date Added:

Sandra Maribel Sánchez is a veteran journalist in Honduras, and was one of the first female reporters to cover Congress. She is known for her rigorous coverage of issues, from access to land use and the environment to women’s and Indigenous rights. In a country of rampant corruption and poverty, where journalists and freedom of expression are permanently under threat, her coverage does not shy away from speaking truth to power. Sánchez was honoured with the Prize for Journalistic Integrity from the Fundación Democracia sin Fronteras in 2007. She currently hosts “Más que dos,” a radio program on Radio Progreso in Honduras.
