Bu bölüm hakkında

According to a World Bank report from March 2023, the global pace of reforms toward equal treatment of women under the law has slumped to a 20-year low. This decline constitutes a potential impediment to economic growth at a critical time for the global economy. Since the Taliban seized power in Afghanistan in 2021, women’s rights have been systematically curtailed. From March 2022, it became the only country in the world where women have no access to secondary school or university. Similarly, to promote their vision of virtue, gymnasiums have been closed. A number of NGOs have repeatedly alerted international institutions to the fact that women can no longer work with them because of non-compliance with the country's compulsory dress code.
