UN urges support for Afghan women’s aid five years into Taliban rule
World2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported25m ago
The United Nations has appealed to international donors to maintain funding for women's programs in Taliban-ruled Afghanistan, warning that withholding financial support will worsen conditions in a country already considered to have the worst environment for women globally.
The urgent appeal comes as the Taliban marks five years back in power. According to data from UN Women, more than half of all women-led and women-focused organizations currently operating in Afghanistan face the distinct possibility of ceasing their operations within the next year if current funding trends and international support levels are not sustained.
