What Afghanistan can teach us about how we think about the future?

In my latest article with @wef, I explore how contexts shaped by uncertainty& fragility challenge conventional approaches to foresight, & why they may offer some of the important lessons.

Heading back from Davos🇨🇭after attending the @wef Annual Meeting and reading the #YouthPulseReport. I also represented Afghanistan, South Asia, and the @GlobalShapers Community on a panel asking, “Which 2050 do we want?” Inspiring conversations with leaders and youth alike.

Afghan women have long resisted violence, oppression, and discrimination—across regimes and invasions. Their unwavering demand has always been simple: their human rights and a rightful seat at the table. Their resistance is their strength and supporting them is a responsibility!

[Zainab Azizi @ZainabAzizii]

Read my contribution to the @wef’s Global Cooperation Agenda, where I highlight the situation of Afghan women and explore how #technology and #diplomacy can be leveraged to protect their rights, expand opportunities, and amplify their voices.

[Stop Gender Apartheid in Afghanistan @stopgend_apart_]

This is how Afghan women feel:

"In the past, you could escape from family tensions by turning to society. Now, both family and society have become prisons, leaving us trapped between the two."

د افغانو ښځو څخه د هغوی د علم د حق اخیستل، د خدای په لوري د هغوی د ورتګ د لارو بندول دي. د دین د فریضې نه ادا کول دي. وار به راورسېږي چې دا تورې شپې پای ته ورسېږي خو دا ورځې به نه هېرېدونکي وي.

That moment when your efforts pay off but you panic because you have had so many restless nights, anxiety & stress to get the bare minimum. Happiness can freak you out too.

Meanwhile every struggle for your country becomes sweet especially when you miss her the most 🇦🇫♥️
