Navahang TV Finland is a Finnish free-to-air satellite television channel operating in the general entertainment format for the Kurdish-speaking diaspora. The primary languages of broadcasting are Kurdish (Kurmanji and Sorani dialects) and Persian. The channel is based in Finland and is operated by Navahang Media Group, which also operates a radio service under the same name. Navahang TV originally began as a radio station in 2015 and expanded to television broadcasting in the following years.

The channel’s transmitter is located in Finland and broadcasts regionally across the MENA (Middle East and North Africa) region, as well as into Europe. The channel is oriented towards human rights, civil society, freedom of the press, democracy, equality, and modernization of society, with a sharp critical stance toward the Islamic Republic of Iran. The channel is openly opposed to forced veiling (hijab) and mandatory religious laws, focusing on fostering a modern society where all groups can enjoy equal rights regardless of gender, ethnicity, religion, or political views.

Navahang TV has produced special series and documentaries. A notable documentary produced by the channel is Women Without Borders, which features the personal stories of women activists from the Kurdish community in Finland. The channel has also aired special programming for Kurdish holidays, including coverage of the International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples in August 2019, with a special report from the Kurdish community's celebrations. The channel also participates in global media collaborations, including the Videos For Change project produced in partnership with international development organizations.

The channel has faced challenges with its financing structure. In 2025, the Finnish government announced it would stop funding diverse media channels under the Community Media Inclusion Project, a move that particularly affected Navahang TV and a few other small diaspora broadcasters. The Finnish Prime Minister’s Office had previously committed to funding the channel for five years, but the termination of the agreement disrupted the channel’s operations and its ability to support independent journalism.

Navahang TV is available via satellite across Europe and the MENA region. The channel also streams its programming online through its official website and mobile applications. Viewers can watch online the live broadcast of Navahang TV through the channel’s website and various streaming platforms. Online television of Navahang TV is accessible on any device, ensuring that Kurdish and Persian-speaking audiences across Finland, Europe, the Middle East, and the global diaspora can access its programming wherever they are.

Navahang TV strives to provide a platform for Iranian and Kurdish diaspora communities in Finland and across Europe, offering programming focused on human rights, democracy, and minority rights. The mission of the channel is to promote open, democratic dialogue about reform in Iran and to support the modernization of Iranian society and the protection of minority rights from a base in Finland, leveraging the country’s strong tradition of freedom of speech and press freedom. Thanks to modern satellite and online platforms, Navahang TV provides the opportunity to watch its live broadcast on any device, ensuring that its reform-oriented programming reaches audiences across Europe and the Middle East wherever its signal is available.
