Why this is important

I am working in favour of the culture of human rights and democracy in Iran and Afghanistan and I want to STOP VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN AND CHILDREN in Iran and Afghanistan

 

I would like to call upon the national and international community to give more room and opportunity to the role of women in peace- and security building in Iran and Afghanistan. I would like to ask the Iran and Afghan Government to ban any discriminatory acts and practices which are against Iran and Afghan women’s rights.

• I would like to call upon the Iran and Afghan state and international partners to support the Afghan and Iran women in reducing poverty. Poverty is one of the main challenges for the Afghan and Iran women in their social life.

• Domestic violence is also a very important challenge for the Afghan and Iran women.
