We need a world where women's rights are respected.
Strong legal frameworks must be put in place to advance gender equality in all areas.

To end women’s higher education is to ignore their historical contributions and sever them from their future potential.
The right to education for all women and girls must be restored immediately.

The decree barring women from working in non-governmental NGOs is yet another stark violation of women’s rights.
We strongly condemn this without reservation & stand in full solidarity with the women & girls of #Afghanistan.

There can be no greater catastrophe in the face of humanitarian crisis than to remove the contribution of half the population in navigating #Afghanistan ’s daunting challenges.
We strongly condemn this without reservation.

Today we remember Betty White, an American actress and the first woman to:
🎬Produce a national TV show,
🎬Star in a sitcom,
🎬Receive an Emmy nomination,
🎬And the first producer to hire a female director.
She continues to inspire us all. #OnThisDay

In barring women from contributing to the efforts of aid organizations, the Taliban has suspended aid for half the population of #Afghanistan, aid without which they will not survive.
This is relentless misogyny, a virulent attack on women, their contribution, freedom and voice.
