FAO: Beekeeping Packages Distributed to 1,500 Afghanistani Women

Published 03/10/2024

RASC News Agency: The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) has announced the distribution of beekeeping packages to 1,500 Afghanistani women this year. In a report published today on its official website, FAO detailed that these beekeeping packages were distributed to women across eight provinces in Afghanistan, aimed at supporting their livelihoods amidst challenging circumstances.

 

According to the report, many Hazara women in Afghanistan face severe uncertainty, unable to find work or sustain themselves due to the restrictive policies imposed by the Taliban. FAO further explained that the distributed aid included essential beekeeping equipment, four improved beehives, and protective gear, designed to enhance the recipients’ ability to manage beekeeping businesses. This assistance was provided under the “Strengthening Rural Livelihoods and Food Security” initiative, a program aimed at fostering sustainable agricultural practices and improving food security in Afghanistan.

 

Since the Taliban regained control over Afghanistan, they have drastically increased restrictions on women. Afghanistani girls and women have been banned from education, employment, and business ventures, leaving millions without access to basic rights or means of livelihood. Numerous investigative reports have highlighted the growing hopelessness among women in Afghanistan; many are struggling with severe depression, while others grapple with the hardships of daily survival.

 

The Taliban’s opposition to women’s education, work, and autonomy remains steadfast, denying them any opportunity to participate in public life. In response to these harsh realities, international organizations have sought to create avenues of employment and engagement for Afghanistani women. In its latest effort, FAO announced the distribution of beekeeping packages to 1,500 women, providing them with much-needed support. These packages are part of an ongoing initiative to empower Afghanistani women and improve their socio-economic conditions.
