Afghanistan's Taliban government to shut down NGOs employing women

The Taliban government in Afghanistan has announced plans to shut down non-governmental organizations (NGOs) that employ women, escalating their restrictions on female participation in public life. This decision follows a series of measures by the Taliban since their takeover in August 2021, which have included barring girls from secondary education, restricting women's access to public spaces, and imposing stringent dress codes. The move has raised significant concerns among international aid groups and human rights organizations, who argue that such actions severely hamper aid delivery and deepen the humanitarian crisis in the country. The closure of these NGOs not only threatens the welfare of millions dependent on aid but also further isolates Afghan women from economic and social opportunities.
