📢 'We will fight. We will die. But we will take back our rights.'
Despite Taliban's ruthless suppression of female protesters, the courageous women of Afghanistan took to the streets of Kabul today, demanding their basic human rights.
The UK government must stand with Afghan women & girls who continue to fight every day for basic freedoms.

In Afghanistan, over 28 million people face starvation, while little children like this boy are forced to work on the streets to put bread on the table.
Where is the humanity. This is soul-shattering. We can't stay silent.
In Afghanistan, now even the female mannequin’s faces must be covered.
The Taliban have ordered all shopkeepers to either behead female mannequins or cover their faces.
This is symbol of the Taliban's treatment of women in Afghanistan. Haunting.
Me in Kabul, at a girls school. These bright girls were studying to become the future of Afghanistan. In 2015, Kabul university even taught gender studies.
Today, 485 days have passed since the Taliban BANNED girls from school. And 30 days since ban on women going to university.
We are facing the gravest levels of geopolitical division and mistrust in generations.
At Davos, I urged leaders to bridge divides and restore cooperation to advance peace, sustainable development and human rights.
When talking about Protecting the Climate Vulnerable at the #WEF23#Openforum we must remember:
It’s not just about climate impacts.
It's about saving lives of Indigenous Peoples who defend nature against extractive oil and mining corporations.
It's about #PeopleNotProfit.

“Afghan women with internet access will now be able to access over 1,200 free courses on the FutureLearn platform from the best of British higher education, for the duration of the Taliban’s ban on female higher education”

Protests against the Taliban's bans on women's education and work continue. This is despite the increasing violent reactions and beatings by the Taliban. Afghan women refuse to be silenced, with 463 days since girls were last allowed in classrooms. #LetAfghanGirlsLearn
The Taliban has forced NRC, Save, Care and many others to suspend operations in #Afghanistan. Banning NGOs from employing women crosses a humanitarian red line. @NRC_Norway cannot and will not operate without our 470 female staff
