Dear John,
Please join Feminist Majority Foundation and Canadian Women for Women in Afghanistan for an important conversation at the United Nations Commission on the Status of Women Virtual Forum for Non-Governmental Organizations:

Upholding Afghan Women’s Rights: What the US and Allies Must Do Now [[link removed]]

Tuesday, March 23, 2021 at 10:30 am EDT
Hosted by the Feminist Majority Foundation and Canadian Women for Women in Afghanistan
Featuring:
Melanne Verveer , Executive Director, Georgetown Institute for Women, Peace & Security
Habiba Sarabi , Member of Government of Afghanistan Peace Negotiation Team
Samira Hamidi , Amnesty International Regional Campaigner, South Asia
Eleanor Smeal , President and co-founder, Feminist Majority Foundation
Moderated by Lauryn Oates , Executive Director, Canadian Women for Women in Afghanistan

Years of US and international presence has laid the groundwork for Afghan women to reclaim agency and empowerment through education and political participation. Yet these advances, vital to wider sustainable development goals, are threatened by the current peace talks that could also result in reduction of support from international allies. Join us to hear from policymakers and activists how women's rights can be protected in negotiations with the Taliban to ensure a sustainable and inclusive peace.
