Idag på den internationella kvinnodagen anordnade vi ett webinarum tillsammans med Svenska Afghanistankommittén och International Rescue Committee (IRC) om kvinnors situation i Afghanistan. Bland andra deltog Jamila Afghani, ordförande för IKFF Afghanistan och internationell vice ordförande. Se samtalet i efterhand nedan.
Under Taliban rule, women are facing significant obstacles in accessing education, work, and basic freedoms.
