How has life changed for Afghan women since the Taliban took power? | DW News

- As US and NATO forces withdrew from conflict-ravaged Afghanistan following two decades of war, fighters from the Islamic fundamentalist group made lightning advances, conquering the entire nation in a matter of weeks. The Taliban has now been in power there for two years.
As global interest in the war-torn country diminishes, many Afghans feel abandoned. Since the Taliban retook control they have imposed draconian restrictions on society, especially women and girls.
Despite initial promises to respect women's rights under Sharia, or Islamic law, the Taliban have since imposed draconian restrictions on women and girls. Most of them are barred from participating in public life, educational institutions and the labor market. Women's freedom of movement has also been severely restricted.
Yet, in an interview with DW's Biresh Banerjee, Taliban spokesperson Suhai Shaheen claimed women had made progress in the country.
Shaheen insisted, incorrectly, that the Taliban have not denied education rights to women. He also said that the Taliban are supporting women's progress by allowing them to study nursing and to specialize as doctors. His argument ignores the fact that such diktats take away women's autonomy. Women are also only allowed to be in medical fields so that they do not have to be treated by male medical staff.
Shaheen restated the Taliban's promise that schools and universities will be reopened to girls and women. He could not specify when this would happen. But, he said, "there is a committee set up to create an Islamic environment for that."
Women in Afghanistan, human rights activists as well as the United Nations vehemently disagree with these claims, and have found chronic discrimination against women in the country.

Women in Afghanistan 100% want the Taliban life. Otherwise, they would have raised men and women to protect democracy. Taliban is right for them.
"suicide attacks have decreased" - yeah, because many of those were done by the taliban.
Also done by ISIS but Taliban pretty much eliminated ISIS from Afghanistan

those bombing were against Americans which is a good thing now cry
Based.
Islam means peace.
The Taliban dilemma, the are afraid if their women get educated they won’t be able to control them because the woman are educated and they are uneducated so she would outrank him in intelligence and his ego would be crushed, the men would fell inferior
BINGO
They're trying to protect women from harassment, exploitation, and immorality. Islam is the most feminist religion.
Like western men ade bimbo most days Listening to government 😂
That's simple to rectify. Educate everyone!
Trying to feel superior so much, only to prove their inborn inferiority complex.
A bird born and raised in a cage doesnt know how nice it is to fly.
Exactly. Anyone born into Islam are unfortunate. Indoctrinated at birth forbidden to question their leaders.

How does this work economically? If half the population is not allowed to work or be educated, will that not create poverty?
It doesn’t. They are already beginning to starve in many parts.
The country doesn’t work, to improve their image, the Taliban blatantly lie.
you see why so many family couldn't even effort to raise a kid, but most of it still has more than 6 kids?
Nope, not the cause. Probably being an international pariah which no one will invest is why.
Afghanistan is an agricultural country we have only 15% economic problems who live in our country capital, so when United nations says something like this it's for thier own benefits to find fund from around the world, also we have border with 6 countries that we find each day more than 8 million dollars also we deal with China on our resources,

That’s literally the same everywhere in the world. Men decide if you have rights or not. Men decided if you live or die that’s reality. If enough men want something they get it. If enough women want something they beg men for it. Such as voting rights

Can't force democracy on someone that don't want it. Afghanistan will go through their own societal reforms in their own time.

I’m so fortunate to not have been born in Afghanistan. Who would choose to live in that repressive country? It’s really tragic for the women, of course, but also for the men. These men are related to, and love the women in their lives, and it hurts them too. But in that type of society brainwashing takes over. It does. There’s no other explanation.
huh. most people in afghanistan didnt choose to live there .. and also yes the situation there is inhumane but to say wow theyre all brainwashed is just ignorant.

@@angelelelelalalalalelae but they are
It didn't used to be like this. There was a modernising government in the 70s who would have done well if they had been able to stay in power
Many Afghan women , engaging in civil disobedience , due to the unfortunate rules being applied by the Taliban , is to feel the abundance of courage to stand up for their rights and freedom , the gratitude for a democracy that still invites them to speak from their hearts , to act from their conscience and have faith in the consequences of moral actions . How far should one accept the bitter rules of the society , ruled by uncertainties , one lives in ? Or rather , at what point does conformity becomes unacceptable in this situation ? Only by answering such question does the conscience truly define itself ... "AFGHANISTAN IS IN PAIN , AND I FEEL SO SAD FOR ALL THE AFGHAN WOMEN WHO HAS TO SUFFER DUE TO SELFISHNESS OF UNCARING TYRANTS ..."
what rights? what freedom? do you have any clue why women are here? well i'll tell you. women are here for men. they are men helpers. they depend on men. that's their role in life. they don't raise kids they HELP raise kids. they are not teachers they are teachers assistants (HELPERS). they are helpers of men. to tell women they can be like men or equal to men is like someone telling you can be G-d or equal to G-d.

I can’t blame you because that’s what the media has made it sound like.
What a depressing and inhumane existence.
It has to change from within. Slavery in the US did not end due to an OUTSIDE force. It ended because people with-IN the country, fought back. The same thing applies to the Middle East. Outside forces do not in anyway, change a thing...because at some point, you have to leave. They need to fix their situation. Don't send anyone else over there to die for someone else's beliefs.
yeah, thats how the people ended up in this situation. No real desiree for change, thinking western countries will do this for them forever
That is all true. However, it looks like the taliban will be in charge for generations to come. Especially if the only form of resistance to the regime are toothless protests that are easily repressed by people with no sense morality.
@@DieGurkenfresserwhile I get your point, the OP does have a point. When the issue is endemic among a certain peoples or culture, the only change can come from is within.
The American taliban are hard at work taking away woman’s rights.
Thats what you get when you scream for gun control 🤷♀️
My son is a combat engineer in the United States Army. He said we gave them billions of dollars of equipment and ammunition. We gave them billions of dollars in training for 20 years. If they wanted to, they could have fought well against the Taliban. Instead they welcomed them in. They want them there. So now the Taliban have US equipment and loyal people because Afghanistan let the Taliban back in. My son had issues when he got back because of what he went through over there. I don’t feel sorry for them at all. They could have had a lot more freedoms if they wanted it and had fought for it. It was there stupidity.
Your son went through issues because he built bridges 😂😂😂
There were many contractors and sub contractors ( foreigners) who were pocketing the funds. The training was a joke and this comes from an American claiming it.
I feel like if they trained the women instead of the men, the taliban wouldn’t have come back into power. The women would have held the country’s defences well, because the women were always the ones who had the most to lose if the taliban regime took over.

@@shodannadohs4045funny, you criticize the taliban for being backwards, yet you are homophobic
How sad that you speak of things you do not know. Afghanistan has not "always" been this way!
You can’t force democracy on a country that doesn’t want it. Afghanistan is too decentralized with different tribes that don’t want to work together. They had 20 years to get their act together. If they wanted freedom bad enough they will fight back….someday.
I agree. Being there for 20 years just to create a unstable government. I don’t think governments should force their ideals on others, as exemplified by what happened when we left.
They don’t , when the US troops went there to train the soldiers, a lot of the Afghan men were high most of the time and messing with little boys
I do have a question, when they say there were lots of suicide during the previous government and less now, who was doing the suicide in the first place. If it were the taliban then of course it will be less now, isn’t it?
There was many isis suicide bombings! Even last year there was one at a school
Taliban with the help of Pakis and Iran
It is clear that the interviewees were selected among the women in order to reduce the crimes of the Taliban.
For example, the first interviewee says that suicide attacks have decreased. When the terrorists were in power, did you expect them to commit suicide?
Can a woman in Kandahar, Helmand, Herat, Badakhshan, Takhar, etc. leave the house with the clothes that these women are wearing in front of the camera? While women in Afghanistan cannot leave the house without being accompanied by a man, this report is an attempt to purge the Taliban.
According to my knowledge, the Taliban are not recognized as a terrorist group. Do you have any documentation for calling them terrorists? Could a woman in Kandahar, Helmand, Herat, Badakhshan, Takhar, etc. leave the house with the clothes that these women are wearing in front of the camera under previous governement? At least under Taliban no woman is raped as it did under Kolabi rule.
@@38MQ 🤡pbuh
that suicide attacks decrease thing is quite funny, but as far as I remember from the news, in the last couple of years of the occupation (after I think IS shifted to afghanistan somewhat when they were defeated in iraq and syria around 2017-2018) the taliban committed well under half of the suicide attacks. but much more than none, and of course you also get fewer IS bombings of girls' schools when you implement the IS policy demand to stop girls' education, which they so eloquently expressed with their bombings.
*I also feel the DW and other western media is trying to promote a narrative that women are not safe in Taliban - the REALITY is women who wish to wear a head-scarf are BANNED in western countries - Hypocrites? YES + Islam spread faster in USA after 911*
@@Ass_of_Amalekyes it is true that the Taliban committed suicide bombing during the American occupancy.
If you're in their position, fighting with the so call super power, who had everything from stealth bomber to nuclear bomb and you only had a rifle to fight back, you will surely resorted to suicide bombing.
And look what happen when the super power ran like someone who is being chase by a lion, leaving everything behind but in reality they are only being chase by a farmer and goat herder.
Of course there are no more suicide bombing from the Taliban because they already won the war.
Why do they single out women to lose their human rights? One girl was devastated because she was accepted in a university in another country yet the government of Afghanistan stopped her from going there. So would they allow a boy to travel for an education? Why are males being educated but females are not? When will males and females have equal rights? What is the proportion of male to female in the government?
You know the saying keep them dumb than you can keep them submissive/docile. Educated people are far harder to fool or suppress.
Women are lifegivers and helpers. Great honor.
Have to answer the first question before the other assumptions. Would they allow a boy to travel, all things being equal? The whitehouse said they'd make sure equality was enforced, sure they're doing a bang up job.
We don't want this honour. And men are also lifegivers and helpers. If you really think women are lifegivers, then you should not interrupt in women's matter. Women give "LIFE", so they will decide their "LIFE".
@@Levitiywomen are not only here to help men, we have been given our own life that isn’t define by children or husbands. You show your lack of respect for women by only seeing what they can do for other while looking at what men can do with their own life’s as individuals.

Afghanistan had 20 years to cooperate with the US in fighting the Taliban and building a new government. Instead, they chose to welcome the Taliban back with open arms at the very first opportunity that they could.

Americans provided the afghans with everything they needed to fight the talibans except for courage and dignity. Those things you can’t buy, loan or rent. You either have courage and dignity or not.

My current community college lab partner is Afghani, I learned bc i asked her if she was italian (for some reason her accent just sounded exactly like an italian one to me), and she whispered in the most nervous tone i have ever heard that she was from Afghanistan. I still feel incredibly bad for accidentally pushing her to out this specific national origin- especially ever since, as she’s dropped little hints that she’s very recently moved to my country. The girl at 3:10 has the most heartbreaking story, you can see the sadness in her eyes. I don’t know how to express the sorrow i feel to know that these women can’t pursue their own dreams in their homeland. And that some who are abroad outwardly express fear or embarrassment for their national origin. Nothing of note from my comment, just emotions man
What a shame, the Taliban are not proud of their women's talents in arts and design. I imagine these designs to be beautiful, unique and rare gift.

🎯 It's 2023, where is at least one all female private military organization that can defend women? Think Blackwater but all female.
@@everettyoung6596 These women are usually called freedom fighters rather than private contractors, they are unpaid because contracts and funding are generally not given to female contractors.
The country will have to make it’s choice one way or another, the women will have to make a choice one way or another. Ether way blood will be shed and people will die.
@@Marshmallow_Treesusa killed so many afghans in bombings and you expect them to fight for your interests? Don't forget it was usa who created the Taliban
Should Ukraine fight its own battle?
Don’t tell me there is peace in Afghanistan now. I don’t want peace while me as a woman suffer from my basic rights, I don’t want peace while I can’t even wear what I want or go where I want or even have not the right to read and write. I don’t care men live in peace while women are oppressed by them
It think Western woke-women should really go fight for their freedom, instead of complaining how hard they have it
I’m glad the us left but wish that the 20 years spent there gave actual tools to be independent rather than creating an unstable situation that would collapse as soon as the military leaves.
All the power to these women, I hope things get better for them.
I don’t believe governments that strip rites from half the population will be able to hold onto power for very long.
From what I understand we sent our guys to train them but their men didn't take their training serious. They just wanted to screw around and get back to their drugs.
The US army can't build a society. They can shoot stuff lol.
@@littlewoodchopper2659 Exactlyyyyy ! A lot of then were high and messing with little boys , didn’t take the training serious at all ! Very sad !
It's insane that US lost to bearded dudes who bar half of the population from contibuting to the economy based on some interpretation of an old book. The most powerful military in the world and yet losing to some poor backwards fanatics...
If they are so confident about those actions, why the lies
And there are people shouting in India that Hinduism / Sanatana Dharma needs to be eradicated cause of regressiveness. None of our texts about Dharma and History took away freedom of women, they were well learned and well trained in all arts and science ( archery, horse riding, sword fighting etc ) . It’s people like these Talibani mentality who created the mess . Now explain this .
Taliban 🤢🤮🤮🤮
I think the interpretation is just 50% of what is being said during the interview. 😅😂😅😅
She was an absolute disgrace 😂
They finally understand that extremists don't care WHAT the Quran, or the Bible, says.
Your country is welcome to take on the task. Blaming the US for everything is a tired excuse and broken record.
Well done - reporting the truth, think he got a little frazzled. The women aren’t heard, just being limited and suppressed a part of the Taliban ideology like you mentioned, very sad but their culture.
This is cruelty to all afghan women.
They say women must wear burqas but then immediately showed women publicly NOT wearing burqas so...
I've been binging The Handmaid's Tale...I can see where the writers and Atwood got their inspiration from😡
it is terrible but nothing international community can do about it. it is reality of the situation.
I really doubt the INTENT of the producers of this interview. One can never look pretty for those who HATE!
A country that was shredded for past 40 years by 2 most powerful countries are hypocritical in asking if Taliban rule is better than them - How Hypocritical! Go and look at european countries like Hungary, Roamania, Czech, etc - where WOMAN are SOLD as commodities for DRUGS, and the POLICE is well aware of the scale of the problem!
Cry infidels 😂
@@OMARKHAN970do you have any sense of what you are saying
Wtf could anyone have thought was going to happen when we pulled out?
This is so depressing.
WoW nothing like living in the Middle Ages goats have more status than woman.The Taiban do not beat goats.
I bet the goat gets to ride in the back of the truck but the woman walks behind?
west should not care. they want to live like we did 2000 years ago i say let them. not our problems why care
I don't think anyone in afghanistan is complaining as much as us here in the west
These types of comments would only matter if they were asking back for us which isn't the case
Yes we should, for all human beings.
When USA GO. The countries Are Ruined such as Iraq Libya Syria Afghanistan Venezuala ect.
They is who. Definitely Afghan women don't want this
Afghanistan is only their problem. Rot. Live. But do in your territory. Don't seek help. Live in huts,caves. Dont beg. Rest don't owe you anything
They hated it when we tried to help so now they have what they wanted.
Really ? You think this is what the women want ?
@@MrCleitus Its not enough if 1 woman want's it or 2. Like should we force the other to follow that girls dreams just because they fit our standards better than the current system? Why not just force em to choose lead or our way? Like the country lacks the will to change so its no point going there to help. If the majority would support change then there is hope but last time the ones that wanted change just gave the weapons to the Taliban's and armed em up. Are you saying they sold em all already and need more so we should give more to the ones that just gives em to the Taliban's again?
Who is "They'
Trying to help is invading their country and bombing them?
@@mooncake387as a afghan these dogs have killed millions of Afghans and destroyed tons of places they and its funny how they only talk about the down sides and not the good sides like recently the taliban are removing the sewer system across all of Afghanistan and adding pipes to make it cleaner also fixing up the roads since most roads are litteraly dry dirt they are also making a river that reaches 300 km long and it will provide water for millions of Afghans the taliban have created 500k jobs to do all these stuff and the pay is good the workers get paid £5-£10 pounds a day which I's enough for a family to live on for a whole week before that people were making £2
also many more like electricity
There is a terrorists regime in Afghanistan.
World should take strict actions against these terrorists.
More power to my country girls and women...❤❤❤
Longlive Afghan women...❤❤❤
Why do you think you are right and Taliban is wrong? They believe in God so what do you have?
@@user-dh6pz5eo2r Believing in God is no excuse to oppress anyone. And a 'belief' is no argument about being right or wrong because it is void of facts.
Except women empowerment, all good it seems. Better than ISIS regime
Let the women make war against them then, Americans are tired of that bullsh*t. No more American blood for ungrateful 3rd world sh*tholes!!!
Islam was the world most powerful ruler for more than 1600 years vs 250 of capitalism and consumeptisme our planet fu*cked up
How cute, the Taliban’s spoke person is living large in luxury in Doha, while the people of Afghanistan are suffering. Sickening!! The spoke person is lying through his teeth.
Why you said taliabn rules. It's sharia rules
That's why states has to be secular to be ruled normally. Religion (ideology) should be a choice and not forced upon to those which prefer to not believe of believe in something else and want to live by those beliefs. In the end governing is about facts and results and belief stays belief.
Great job DW team 👏
