Empowering Afghan Women and Girls Through Education, Justice, and Freedom

We envision a society where Afghan women and girls live in freedom and safety, with equal rights and opportunities.

About the Movement / History

The Women’s Justice Movement is an independent human rights organization established following the Taliban’s return to power. It was formed in response to the widespread and systematic suppression of women’s rights, with the aim of defending women’s dignity, combating gender discrimination, and empowering women socially, economically, and politically. Through education, awareness-raising, advocacy, and international cooperation, the movement represents the voice of Afghan women inside and outside the country and works toward building a free, equal, and humane society.
