CPJ is proud to have given 58 journalists prison support in 2024, making up just over 10% of all individual financial grants we gave to journalists last year. CPJ also supported 15 journalists with post-prison support grants.

“Today in Kabul, a female cat has more freedoms than a woman.”

Thank you, Meryl Streep, for standing in solidarity with the women and girls of Afghanistan. This is exactly what we need—global solidarity. We need women, especially those with influence and platforms, to speak up. Be a friend. Be an ally. The fight against gender apartheid and inequality isn’t just ours; it’s everyone’s.

If the world normalises the Taliban’s abhorrent treatment of women in Afghanistan, what’s to stop it from happening to women elsewhere?

Iraqi women’s rights activist confronts a pedophile iman for legalizing child marriage in Iraq.

“You are following Muhamad who married 9-year-old Aisha 1400 years ago. That is not normal in today’s world. How can a normal man marry a child?”

She’s risking her life for this!

[Hannah Neumann @HNeumannMEP]

Imagine giving birth to a child — in #Afghanistan. Your son is sent to a madrassah, your daughter banned from school & silenced. Both suffering under #genderapartheid.

We can’t turn our backs on them. Here’s what we need to do (1/2):

Afghanistan is the only country in the world where girls are banned from education.

We’ve become so comfortable with hearing about femicide that the media uses the term “pureed” to describe a woman being murdered without even flinching.

Afghan women were shut out of a key UN summit this summer but they won't be silenced. Today they're congregating in Tirana for a historical summit. Well done to the amazing women keeping up the fight, not least @Zehra_Zaidi @Fawziakoofi77 @ZahraJoya
