AIL seeks to spread education to as many women as possible to empower them in life so they can reach their full potential. AIL uses different means to reach women with education. All its Learning Centers receive copies of the magazine that AIL publishes called Neda-e-Talim. There are two issues each year. AIL also contributes educational programming to the private station, Radio Meraj.
The content of the magazine is educational and news orientated emphasizing literacy and health with use of photographs and graphics. The most recent edition included articles on: literacy for a better life, Touchstone English language learning system, women and leadership skills, discriminatory language, health, peace, private school football, women’s rights, poetry and literature, discipline at schools, children’s literature. The magazine also gives updates on AIL’s work, information on AIL’s Learning Centers and Dr. Yacoobi’s private radio station, Radio Meraj. Copies of the magazine are widely distributed and available at all AIL facilities such as offices, libraries, centers and clinics.
Some of the women at centers are illiterate starting out on their education journey or are only able to read a little. The magazine is still of use to them as it has pictorial content too. More accomplished readers may read aloud to the illiterate women helping them and creating bonds of friendship.
