Launch of a People’s Tribunal for Women of Afghanistan before the Permanent Peoples’ Tribunal
July 31, 2025
A coalition of Afghan civil society organizations is proud to announce the launch of a People’s Tribunal for Women of Afghanistan before the Permanent Peoples’ Tribunal (PPT), a groundbreaking initiative to address the impunity around gender persecution in Afghanistan.
As Afghan women and girls continue to face systematic oppression at the hands of the Taliban, and while states around the world gradually normalize Taliban atrocities, Afghan civil society is taking action. By launching the People’s Tribunal for Women of Afghanistan, Afghan civil society and women’s rights groups are creating a pathway to hold the Taliban accountable for their crimes and demand justice, raise the alarm about normalization of Taliban’s oppression of women and give women and girls their chance to be heard around the world.
