Afghanistan ranked as the worst country for women’s rights globally

Afghanistan ranked as the worst country for women's rights globally

RASC News Agency: The recent announcement by the Georgetown Institute for Women, Peace, and Security paints a grim picture for women in Afghanistan. According to the Global Status of Women Index, Afghanistan ranks last among 177 countries in 2023. This index, published by the Oslo Peace Research Center for Gender, Peace, and Security, sheds light on the dire situation faced by Afghanistani women. With a woeful score of 0.286 points, Afghanistan holds the unenviable title of having the most unfavorable position for women worldwide. The head of the Oslo Peace Research Center, El Trigisteed, underscores the harsh reality that Afghanistani women wake up each day without access to employment opportunities, education, or personal independence. This report acts as a clarion call for world leaders to urgently address the profound challenges confronted by Afghanistani women.

Moreover, despite the Taliban’s usurpation of power in Afghanistan, the plight of women and girls within the nation has only escalated. Countless restrictions have been imposed, stripping them of their rights to work and receive an education. These constraints have sparked grave concerns among Afghanistani women and girls, resulting in an upsurge of suicides, psychological distress, and coerced and underage marriages. The ramifications of these restrictions on the well-being and prospects of Afghanistani women must not be underestimated.

Recognizing the pressing need for action in Afghanistan is imperative for the international community. The suffering of Afghanistani women should not be disregarded, as their limited opportunities and freedoms not only impact them individually but also impede the progress and advancement of the entire country. Robust efforts must be undertaken to address these issues and extend support towards empowering Afghanistani women, ensuring the safeguarding of their rights and well-being.
