Yesterday at the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva, I joined leaders and advocates for a discussion on empowering future leaders through human rights education. Young people are not only the future of human rights; they are already defending and shaping them today.

Afghanistan’s human rights crisis demands sustained international scrutiny.
At #HRC63, we join 91+ Afghan civil society organisations and 8 international organisations in calling on states to renew the Special Rapporteur’s mandate, maintain dedicated reporting on women and girls, address violations against marginalized communities, and urgently operationalize the IIMA.
Accountability cannot wait.

On 9 September 2026, the Afghan Women Coordination Umbrella (AWCU), together with its co-sponsoring partners, convened a side event at the United Nations in Geneva entitled “When Injustice Becomes Law.
“Afghan women do not want pity. They want justice.”
The event brought together Afghan women human rights defenders, legal experts, civil society representatives, religious scholars and advocates to examine recent legal measures introduced by Afghanistan’s de facto authorities and their consequences for women and girls.

Yesterday, I delivered remarks at a side event at the UN Human Rights Council on the institutionalization of discrimination and injustice under Taliban rule. I highlighted the voices of Afghan women and youth and the continued restrictions on their rights and freedom.

What happens when repression is written into law?
At #HRC63, this important side event will examine the devastating impact of the #Taliban’s Criminal Procedure Code on Afghan women — and what its institutionalisation of discrimination and repression means for human rights and accountability.

من آرزو دارم روزی برسد که هیچ زن افغان به دلیل ترس، محدودیت یا نبود دسترسی به محاکم، از پیگیری حق خود منصرف نشود و همه بتوانند در سایه عدالت، امنیت و احترام، زندگی شایسته‌ای داشته باشند.
