Dhaka, July 22 -- HerNet TV, Asia's first internet-based television channel solely focused on women's wellbeing, was launched on Monday evening to help women share their stories with the world.

Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader MP opened the HerNet TV through a grand launching ceremony held at Gulshan Club in the city.

With the slogan 'Holding Hands Together', the television channel will give them an opportunity to be heard on issues that may not necessarily command coverage in the mainstream media.

The goal of HerNet TV is to break away from the one-dimensional representation of women by creating such documentaries, factual entertainment, and educational, informative and reality programmes for female audiences.
