NRC Chief Calls for Unified Global Message To Taliban Leadership on Afghan Women
Jan Egeland, the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC) Secretary General urged for a unified global message to the Taliban leadership. Egeland added that the ambassadors of Qatar and Turkey in Kabul support his demand for female education and the right to work for female NGO workers.
Egeland is on a week-long visit to Kabul and earlier in a video message said that he visited Kabul to fight for women's right to work in Afghanistan.
The Taliban's decision to ban women from work and education has led to widespread national and international condemnation.
Many Islamic countries have also criticised the Taliban’s latest restrictions against Afghan women.
