Megha Mohan became the BBC’s first global gender and identity correspondent in 2018, covering issues concerning women’s rights, LGBT communities, race and ethnicity, for the BBC’s language services worldwide. She has investigated the black market for abortion pills in Honduras, the multi-billion-dollar global love coaching industry and gender roles in North Korea’s army - a story that ranked among Chartbeat’s 100 most-read articles in the world.

Mohan was named in Progress 1000’s list of most influential storytellers, and she consulted on Level Up’s media guidelines on how to sensitively report on domestic violence. She is also the co-founder of Second Source, a network of women journalists from under-represented backgrounds.
