Even before the fall of the republic, girls in remote Afghan provinces were victims of poverty and the powerful. Today, the rights of Afghan women and girls are still being violated.

This is the reality of women and young girls in Afghanistan today. In Afghanistan, a young girl, crushed by poverty and desperation, has been forced onto the streets of Kabul in search of nothing more than a piece of bread. “She said we had nothing to eat for Iftar, not a single meal to break our fast. Hunger left us with no choice but to beg.” No awakened conscience can witness such suffering and remain silent. Where are the United Nations and its partners? Where are the millions of dollars used in the name of women and girls supporting? Why the silence, and until when?

This Gender Apartheid in Afghanistan! This reflects the reality of many innocent young girls in Afghanistan. The sale of young girls is not a choice, not culture, not religion, it is a cry born out of poverty and desperation. Reports over the years show that, especially after the fall of the republic on August 15, 2021, cases of early marriage and extreme hardship have increased significantly. Last day another academic year begins in Afghanistan with the doors of education still closed to women and girls. 5 years of stolen futures and denied dignity under a system of gender-based restrictions. The world must not remain silent. Education is not only a place for learning; it is a shield that protects girls from early marriage, forced arrangements, and loss of hope. The world must not forget this injustice and must take action against the conditions facing women and young girls in Afghanistan.
