Since taking control in 2021, the Taliban have made life for women and girls intolerable, excluding them from education and jobs. In September, Australia, Canada, Germany and the Netherlands announced they would initiate legal proceedings against the Taliban at the International Court of Justice for violation of women’s human rights. © ATIF ARYAN/AFP via Getty Images


The world must act in solidarity with the courageous women and girls of Afghanistan by advocating for their rights and holding the Taliban regime to account.
