The “All Women Summit, Tirana,” held from September 10-14 in Albania, gathered over 120 women to discuss Afghanistan’s future, but it faced controversy over two articles in the final resolution. The resolution highlighted Afghanistan’s worsening human rights conditions, particularly for women under Taliban rule, and proposed creating a “Women’s Political Charter for Afghanistan’s Future.” However, Articles 13 and 14, which suggest engaging the Taliban with women’s involvement in negotiations, sparked objections. Women’s rights activists argue that engaging the Taliban could grant them legitimacy, undermining efforts to hold them accountable for human rights abuses. Despite these disagreements, the resolution emphasizes prioritizing women’s rights, humanitarian aid, and education in Afghanistan’s green energy transition.
