Regression and Resistance: The Struggle for Women's Rights in Afghanistan
Shaharzad Akbar in conversation with Shazia Choudhry.
The strongest civil resistance to the drastic attacks on human rights and women’s rights in Afghanistan since the Taliban takeover in August 2021 comes from the Afghan women’s rights communities, internally and in exile. Shaharzad and Shazia will reflect on the struggle for women’s rights over the past two decades and the dilemmas for Afghan activists now.
