Supporting the Women of Afghanistan
This video from Women, War & Peace highlights the continued struggle of women in Afghanistan to be included in the peace and rebuilding process. Though the United Nations made an international stipulation that women must be included in any conflict resolution, women are barely involved in such processes. However, Afghan women will continue to fight—they fear their rights will be sacrificed in Afghanistan’s struggle for peace, and they believe their presence at peace talks is crucial to rebuild a sustaining peace.
