ABSTRACT

In this study, an attempt has been made to explain the reasons for the fragility of the achievements of Afghan women from 2001 to 2021, which is based on a descriptive-analytical method. Addressing the socio-political activity of women in Afghanistan has been a fresh and up-to-date debate since the new political system came to power in 2001 that had been attracted the attention of the most political experts, researchers, countries and organizations supporting women. However, the issue of sustainability of women's achievements was forgotten and no special attention was paid to it. As the fragility of these achievements is clearly felt at this point in time, the present study is based on the history of women's activities, the laws of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan on women, and the barriers to women's political, social and economic participation over the past two decades. As a result, tougher struggles over a longer period of time, the design and implementation of real projects based on the Afghanistan's social structure, the weakening of gendered views, the change of discriminatory laws, the stability of security and democracy, and increasing the scientific capacity of women can bring lasting achievements to Afghan women.
