Tuesday, Aug. 15 // 11:00 am–12:30 pm (ET)
Two years after the Taliban takeover in Afghanistan, three prominent Afghan thought leaders—all of whom served as senior officials in Afghan governments prior to the takeover—will offer their views about the country today. They will offer a policy assessment of the last two years, consider what the future might hold, and discuss what specific policy steps the international community—and especially the US government—can and should take to help address the country’s many challenges. The panelists will also be asked, given how things have turned out today, if there is anything they would have done differently when they were senior policymakers.
The main focus areas of the discussion will be governance, women's rights, public health, education, and security.
This event is part of the Wilson Center’s Hindsight Up Front Afghanistan initiative.
