The National Alliance of Women’s Organisations (NAWO) is an alliance of diverse membership organisations and individuals working for and passionate about women’s empowerment.
We have decades of unique expertise, beginning in the 1970s, in enabling women, girls and women’s organisations to understand the laws and processes that ensure their human rights at all levels. All of our work is underpinned by the values and implementation of UN gender equality mechanisms

“I have been subjected to physical violence and threats many times…Life under Taliban rule is so difficult and unbearable that it cannot be expressed.”
-Farah, an Afghan teacher and midwife.

Women and girls in #Afghanistan need to live free from violence.

Their rights MUST remain high on the international agenda.

We continue to call for immediate global action to end the severe oppression of women and girls in Afghanistan.
