Switzerland: The third international Shahmama Conference, focusing on the situation of Afghan women, will be held at the United Nations headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland.

The international conference is scheduled for Monday, June 15, with the participation and cooperation of more than 12 countries, UN Women, and several international organizations.

According to reports, Afghan women, diplomats, policymakers, human rights experts, representatives of international organizations, and civil society activists, along with key speakers from various countries, will gather at the event.

The conference will discuss the current situation of Afghan women and the challenges they face.

It will also focus on exploring political solutions to support the rights, justice, and meaningful participation of women in Afghanistan’s future.

Over the past five years, Afghan women have faced numerous restrictions and challenges, including bans on work, education, and schooling.

Since the Taliban’s return to power in Afghanistan, women in the country have been forced to stay at home and have faced various restrictions imposed by the group.
