Last night, we hosted the launch of 'Afghan women at the forefront of climate change'.

Led by Isabelle Zhu-Maguire, Hannah Oates and Caitlin Graham, the magazine is a compilation of stories, essays and images from young, Afghan women. These women are still living in Afghanistan and have written about their experiences of gender-based oppression and climate change. They provide an insight into why the voices of marginalised women are so important if we are to solve the climate crisis.

EVENT ANNOUNCEMENT 🚨 Bargaining with the Taliban: Women, Peace and Security in Afghanistan 🇦🇫 Monash GPS

The Taliban's takeover of Afghanistan on 15 August 2021 undid the significant achievements of the Women, Peace and Security (WPS) agenda in Afghanistan and reinstituted gender apartheid.

What can the international community do to restore women's fundamental rights and freedoms? What is the scope for supporting Afghan women representatives to negotiate directly with the Taliban, and for including Afghan women as equal partners to inform advocacy and policy priorities? What can Australia do to promote an inclusive peace settlement in Afghanistan?

AIIA Victoria invites you to join Dr Jacqui True and Dr Farkhondeh Akbari to discuss the challenges for the women, peace and security agenda in Afghanistan.
