Despite numerous challenges, Afghan grassroots organizations lead a compelling push for women's rights, social justice and education for girls. We have partnered with Freedom Now in drafting a joint report entitled “Now and Then: Grassroots activism under the Taliban” to highlight how donors, international organizations, foreign governments, and other stakeholders can support these activists and ensure the continued operation of critical grassroots civic organizations within Afghanistan. “The state of civil society has changed dramatically in Afghanistan in the past three years,” said Freedom Now’s Executive Director Andrea J Prasow. “Nearly 60% of organizations operating in Afghanistan did not exist before 2021 and more than 75% are women-led, a likely response to the Taliban’s increasing restrictions on women. While these organizations are doing indispensable work and elevating marginalized voices, their leaders and members face considerable personal risk and constant threat of arrest.” “Grassroots civic organizations are vital agents of positive change, embodying the spirit of activism and community engagement,” said Hogan Lovells partner Sina R. Hekmat. “The international community must provide these brave activists the necessary support to amplify their impact. Doing so will contribute to the advancement of human rights, social justice and sustainable development in communities around the world.” The report makes several recommendations including: • Providing dedicated funding for capacity-strengthening; • Engaging grassroots organizations in program planning and decision making; • Exerting pressure on the Taliban to lift restrictions on civil society; • Promoting protection of civic actors; and • Facilitating the safe relocation of activists in danger.
