Study Findings: Afghanistan Deemed the “Worst” Country for Women

Published 03/09/2024

RASC News Agency: A joint report by the Georgetown Institute for Women, Peace and Security and the Oslo Peace Research Institute reveals that Afghanistan, under Taliban rule, has been identified as the “worst” country for women. According to the report, cited by IntelliNews on Tuesday, September 3, Afghanistan ranks last among 177 countries in the global Women, Peace, and Security Index. The report assesses the condition of women across 13 indicators, including justice and security, education, maternal mortality, employment, systemic violence, and gender-based violence.

 

The authors of the report attribute this dismal ranking to numerous “bitter” examples, including the Taliban’s retaliatory killings of women and their forced disappearances. The report also highlights that due to the deterioration of healthcare services under Taliban rule, Afghanistan now has the highest maternal mortality rate in the world, with approximately 620 deaths per 100,000 live births.

 

The report further notes the Taliban’s enforcement of the Law on the Propagation of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice, which has imposed new restrictions on women. Following Afghanistan, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the Central African Republic, and Yemen are identified as the worst countries for women. Last year, Afghanistan also ranked last among 177 countries globally in terms of women’s progress, receiving the lowest score.
