UN women have mark four years since the Taliban taking control
United Nations The special representative of Afghanistan, Susan Ferguson, addressed erosion on a social level of human rights of women in the country in a briefing to journalists in New York on Thursday, just before the fourth anniversary of the Taliban takeover.

Prohibition of schools and most jobs, women “continue to feel – and are often – dangerous in public places, in their communities or their families, and are unable to take advantage of the advantages of an increase in the global security situation since taking control,” said Ferguson.

These organizations are trying to continue – but they need more financial assistance.
“We must continue to invest in their NGOs, their companies and their voices in international dialogues,” concluded Ms. Ferguson.
