Afghanistan Dialogue Conference in Vienna

Despite everyday experiences of violence across Afghanistan, women are at the forefront, demonstrating courage and endurance often at the risk of their own lives.

The setback of women’s rights and freedoms are destabilising factors not only for Afghanistan but for the world. The international community has the power and the responsibility to unlock mechanisms that challenge the rule of strongmen – the Taliban – who are currently terrorising every layer of society.
