Key Messages

End Violence Against Afghanistan Women – A Call for Justice and Change

Violence against women is a profound violation of human rights, dignity, and freedom. It affects individuals, families, and communities across the globe, leaving lasting scars that impact generations. From physical abuse to psychological and economic oppression, these forms of violence deprive women of their right to live safely and freely.

March 8 – International Women’s Day: A Day of Contrast for Afghanistan Women

Today, March 8, we celebrate International Women’s Day—a day to honor the achievements and contributions of women worldwide. Yet, while many celebrate progress, Afghanistan women face a reality of profound restrictions. Denied the right to education, barred from jobs, and excluded from public life, Afghanistan women and girls are fighting for basic freedoms that many take for granted.

Stand with Afghanistan Women – Support the Afghan Women’s Movement

Afghanistan women are courageously fighting for their basic human rights amid severe restrictions that limit their access to education, employment, and public life. Their struggle is one of resilience, dignity, and determination, as they continue to raise their voices for justice and equality despite overwhelming challenges.

The Rights of Afghanistan Women under Taliban Rule – A Cry for Justice

Under Taliban governance, Afghanistan women are stripped of basic human rights and freedoms, confined to what is effectively a prison of oppressive policies and restrictions. The right to education, employment, and freedom of movement has been taken away, leaving Afghan women and girls with little hope for a future where they can learn, grow, and participate in society.

The Rights to Education and Employment for Afghanistan Women Under Taliban Rule

Under Taliban rule, Afghanistan women and girls have been stripped of their fundamental rights to education and employment—rights that are essential for personal and societal progress. Schools and universities that once provided hope and opportunity are now closed to Afghanistan girls, barring them from acquiring the skills and knowledge they need to build their futures. 

Afghanistan Women’s Right to Education and Work under Taliban Rule

When women have access to education, the entire society benefits. Educated women are empowered to make informed decisions, contribute to the economy, and inspire future generations. They become leaders, innovators, and change-makers, breaking cycles of poverty and fostering progress in every area of life.
