There are several ways to help women and girls in Afghanistan. One option is to donate to the Voices of Resilience Crowdfunder: https://gofund.me/52f821d4 An Audiobook Initiative for Afghan Women, which empowers these brave girls by creating audiobooks that advocate for their rights.
Sara, who spoke at a recent Afghan webinar, has reached out to Green Party Women about the urgent need for someone to volunteer and provide mental health consultation training for Afghan women, as the harsh Taliban restrictions have severely affected their mental well-being. Sara emphasises the urgency of the situation, stating,
“The situation is harsh; we need to take action earlier than later.”
If you have the relevant skills or know someone who does, please contact The Green Party Women Committee: https://women.greenparty.org.uk/.
A local group will be holding a silent vigil for Afghan Women at the Market House, Taunton at 4pm on 7th December. All welcome.
