Third International Shahmama Conference on Afghan Women Scheduled for Geneva

The third international Shahmama conference, which is dedicated to examining the status of Afghan women, is scheduled to occur at the headquarters of the United Nations in Geneva, Switzerland. This event is planned for the date of 25 Jawza. A wide range of participants is anticipated, including delegates from more than 12 countries. UN Women is also expected to be involved, together with representatives from a number of other international organizations and institutions.

The list of those who will attend the conference includes Afghan women themselves, as well as diplomats, policymakers, experts in the field of human rights, representatives from international organizations, activists from civil society, and principal speakers coming from a variety of countries around the world.

During the conference, attendees will discuss the present situation and the various challenges that Afghan women are currently facing. Among the topics to be addressed are the bans that have been placed on work, education, and public participation. House confinement is another issue that has affected Afghan women under Taliban rule during the past five years.

In addition to identifying these challenges, the conference will seek to identify political solutions. These solutions are meant to provide support for the rights of women. They are also intended to promote justice and to enable the meaningful involvement of women in the future development of Afghanistan.
