The Taliban's latest assault on women's rights: banning windows in homes that look into "women's spaces," like kitchens.
This isn't just about architecture – it's about breaking women's resistance. When women can't see or connect with each other, they can't organize, share information, or build the networks needed for collective action.
Isolated behind walls, Afghan women and girls face increasing danger from gender-based violence with no way to signal for help. This systematic erasure from public life will impact generations, attempting to strip women of their power.

• Educate yourself about Afghanistan's women-led resistance
