Rise For and With the Women of Afghanistan

Women of the world and our allies stand with the women – and all vulnerable groups – of Afghanistan against imperialism, militarism, fundamentalism, and fascism. None of us are free until the women of Afghanistan are free.

We believe the women of Afghanistan have the right to education, to travel, to freedom of movement, to jobs, to security, just having freedom to be able to breathe and be.

We cannot underestimate the power of our solidarity at this moment.

Rise For and With the Women of Afghanistan

Rage, Roar & RISE: Women of the world have our eyes on Afghanistan.

JOIN US:

Wear masks. Social distance. All events outside.

We follow the lead of Afghan women on the ground. We urgently call upon governments, the UN Security Council, and regional entities to:

  • Refuse to recognize a Taliban government, which has no legitimacy beyond the brutal force it commands, and which terrorizes the people of Afghanistan, girls and women in particular.
  • Stop all forms of support to the Taliban, including funding, providing of arms, and technical know-how.
  • End imperialism, militarism, fascism and religious fundamentalism. Cut the Pentagon Budget.
  • Stop and prevent manipulating women’s rights for commercial and other interests.
  • Support the women’s resistance to the Taliban inside Afghanistan. Respect and support Afghan women and people’s exercise of their democratic and human rights, including their right to self-determination.
  • Evacuate women and men, human rights defenders, journalists, police officers, public employees, athletes, and LGBTI+ who wish to leave the country and ensure their safe passage.
  • Create an independent body of observers, made up with a majority of women, who have a track record of promoting women’s human rights to monitor the situation in Afghanistan.
  • Welcome refugees, with the US and their allies assuming the responsibility of financing the cost of resettling displaced people from Afghanistan.
  • Immediately open humanitarian corridors to support the people of Afghanistan.
  • Stop arms trade policies and the military industrial complex, which profits from the ongoing wars in Afghanistan and elsewhere the world.

We call upon the women of the world, and our allies, to:

  • Listen, share, and amplify the voices of the women of Afghanistan.
  • Defend women’s rights, which are under threat in all countries, and uphold the principles of equality and secularism as the backbone of the protection of these rights.
  • Expose your own government’s role in perpetuating or tolerating armed conflict and intervention in Afghanistan.
  • Call for a feminist foreign policy that prioritizes sustainable peace, human security, and freedom for all.
  • Understand and advocate that our common future as women is reflected in the faces of Afghan women, as right-wing populist forces that are anti-women, anti-human rights, and anti-democracy are rising around the world.

Drafted in consultation with Afghan women on the ground, One Billion Rising/V-Day, and Women’s Global Solidarity with Women of Afghanistan.
