Summary of Countrywide Consultations with Afghan Women [July 2024]
This report captures the voices and concerns of women across Afghanistan as they navigate an increasingly restrictive environment for women’s rights. Since its military takeover in August 2021, the Taliban (the de facto authorities (DFA)) has implemented a series of decrees, directives, and practices aimed at systematically removing women from Afghan public life and decision-making positions – across almost all sectors. This stream of edicts has also included a ban on girls and young women pursuing secondary and university-level education in Afghanistan.
