“When the Taliban seized power in 2021, the women of Afghanistan’s hard-won rights were swiftly erased. Bans on education, employment, and even access to public spaces reflect not incidental repression but a deliberate policy of gender apartheid. This daily reality parallels…
For four years, Afghan girls and women have led a liberation movement — fighting to end gender apartheid through classrooms, courtrooms and coalitions. @MalalaFund is continuing to back this fight with $3 million in grants to keep girls learning and defend their rights. Learn…
Day 1438 🏫 Day 978 🎓 🇦🇫 Denying Afghan girls education is not “culture” — it’s oppression. It’s gender apartheid. Global solidarity is urgent. ✊ #RecogniseGenderApartheid #CrimeAgainstHumanity #LetAfghanGirlsLearn
"If we want to decrease the level of child marriages, we do need to expand online education, digital learning, and cross-border scholarships so that the girls are not left out and they are not at risk" @FreshtaKarimi
"Protection services, safe houses, once a lifeline for women fleeing violence, have shut down across the country. Without shelters, survivors face the impossible choice of returning to abusive homes or risking detention." @FreshtaKarimi
"There is no path forward for Afghanistan without first dismantling the system of oppression, domination, and discrimination. This means that… prioritizing women’s rights and addressing gender-based violence is a necessary step before any progress or engagement with the…

"The campaign to make gender apartheid an international crime is especially important and powerful for a couple of reasons. One of them is that it seems to speak so deeply to how Afghanistan’s women themselves see the situation" @heatherbarr1
"Afghanistan is a test; a test whether the will stand firm in the face of gender persecution and oppression; a test of whether human rights principles apply universally, or only when it is politically convenient; a test whether we truly listen to the voices of Afghanistan’s…
"The Taliban are also committing other wide-ranging violations of human rights… including a disturbing surge in public executions and corporal punishments, arbitrary arrest and detentions, extrajudicial executions, acts tantamount to enforced disappearances, torture and…
Some of WCRAN’s latest research recommendations gathered from the respondents: 1. Support the codification of gender apartheid as a crime against humanity in international law and in the draft treaties on crimes against humanity. 2. Provide the opportunity of online and in-person…
“36.7% of WCRAN’s latest research respondents have identified as victims of gender-based violence, and 56.4% reported witnessing such violence.” #WCRANMember
“Women are living in a very dark situation,… facing severe kinds of psychosocial trauma… we have lots of cases of suicide among the young generation, which, because of lack of access to information, the media cannot cover them.” @ZarqaYaftali
“it has been four years since all women in Afghanistan have lost hope, they cannot go to school, they cannot go to work, they don’t have political participation, they cannot go out without a male family member, and even they cannot go to the doctor….” @ZarqaYaftali
