The Peacebuilders Club
Afghanistan is still in the most dangerous places in the world for women and girls.
87% of Afghan women are illiterate, only 2% of women have access to higher education and they still face major barriers to accessing employment. This excludes them from playing a meaningful role in decision-making processes.
Close to 90% of Afghan women and girls suffer from at least one form of abuse, including physical or psychological violence, and 70-80% face forced marriage, many before the age of 16.
Our goal is to tackle these problems and barrier !
