The Afghanistan Gender Index 2024 report provides a comprehensive assessment of gender equality in Afghanistan, highlighting persistent disparities across various sectors. Despite some progress, women and girls continue to face significant barriers in areas such as education, employment, political participation, and access to justice, largely due to ongoing conflict, cultural norms, and restrictive policies. The report emphasizes the urgent need for targeted interventions to promote gender equality and empower women and girls in Afghanistan. It calls for increased support from the international community, policy reforms, and community engagement to address the root causes of gender inequality and ensure a more inclusive and equitable future for all Afghans.
