Three years after the fall of Kabul to the Taliban in August 2021, women and girls in Afghanistan continue to face relentless attack on their human rights: they can’t work, go to school, or leave their house without a male guardian. What is happening in Afghanistan is one the biggest regressions of women’s rights in modern history.
Afghan women pleaded with the international community to “move from beautiful words and statements to practice,” yet many funders are pulling out of the region, citing logistical and other challenges related to the ongoing Taliban rule.
An Afghan activist for girls’ rights shared with us what life is like under the Taliban, how to support feminist activists there, and what’s at stake for women and girls in the region. Read her interview through the link in our bio.
