Women In Business Afghanistan – Forgotten Women

Women In Business Afghanistan

For 43 years the Afghani people have been living through occupation, our team from the UK have sat with the women of Afghanistan, and they have told us horrific war crimes that were committed against women and children. Women across the country were violated whilst the men were massacred before their eyes. We have visited villages which largely exist of widows as majority of the men were killed in cold blood.

In such circumstances the women of Afghanistan have been left with no support or even basic food, and when the desperation sets in, they look to sell the only assets they have to save themselves and their family members, this includes selling themselves, their children, and their organs. The streets are littered with women begging for food, we have had case studies where women have been forced to sell their daughters as young as 4 years old to feed themselves and their children. You may ask, how can a mother do such a thing, when there is state support and you haven’t eaten for days and your children are crying out of hunger, a mother is faced with the hardest decision she will ever have to make, to sell one child in order for the rest to survive. This desperation leads them to selling one child for as little as $500 in order to save the rest of the family.
