Women in Afganistan By: Ashley Linscott

History of woman’s role in Afganistan In Afganistan most of the population follows the Islamic religion. In this religion it is said that men and women are equal to god and should have the same rights The Taliban’s rule ( ): Women were forbidden to work. Leave their home without a male escort. Couldn’t get help from a male doctor. Have to cover all skin from head to toe, even their eyes. -Women who didn’t follow the rules would be severely punished or killed.

History (cont.) When you here any statement from people that are in the taliban you can hear that the reason women are put under extreme restrictions is because women are tempting, cheating, lying, weak, and sinful creatures that the men keep around so that they can have children and intercourse

Political impact role of women today Political impact role of women today After the government put a constitution in place the rights of women and the way women are treated has improved. Article 22 states that “the citizens of Afghanistan – whether women or men – have equal rights and duties before the law.” People today are scared to change the way women are treated in the area because the Taliban is attacking people who are trying to make a difference. The director of the Ministry of Women’s Affairs in the Laghman province of eastern Afghanistan, Hanifa Safi, was assassinated on July She died because a magnetic bomb was attached to her car.

Political impact (cont.) The USA comes to help: The U.S government has been trying to take down the Taliban completely and help set up a democracy in Afganistan while trying to help the women get more rights in the new government.

Role of women today Education: Education is now offered to women and young girls. Only 1% of girls in rural communities attends school Nearly 79% of older women are illiterate. On average, Afghan women give birth to 7 children 1 of every 62 women die during childbirth, and in some regions the number is as high as 1 in 16 Most of the men think that the women are inferior and are there just to be their slaves and have/ raise kids.

Women’s rights and restrictions Rights: To work at a shop or company To have a free public education Women can show their faces Women are allowed to walk around in public without a male at their side. Women are allowed to go places in public and buy things Restrictions: Women have to follow /obey to their husbands. Women still have arranged marriages Women still have to cover their bodies from head to toe but they can have their faces uncovered

Restrictions Complete ban on women's activity outside the home unless accompanied by a close male relative such as a father, brother or husband.(while the Taliban was in power) A man must not hear a woman's footsteps. No name can have the word woman or women in it. Only allowed to wear dark, long, and thick clothing. Have to be covered from head to toe and in some areas cannot show their face. Cannot talk or interact with a man that isn’t related or married to the women.(while Taliban were in power) Cannot talk or laugh loudly

Women and change In Afganistan the Taliban is still very dominate is some areas. Girls and women are still getting killed if they don’t follow the rules the Taliban set in place. A little girl that is a blogger who talks about women's rights and education was shot recently by Taliban members and was almost killed. She was attacked because they didn’t like her trying to gain women's rights because the Taliban thinks that women are at fault for most things and are inferior to men.
