UN’s top women meet Taliban over female aid worker ban in Afghanistan – BBC News


UN Deputy Secretary General Amina Mohammad, the UN’s most senior woman, is in Afghanistan to meet with the Taliban over the recent ban on female aid workers in the country.

Mohammad is leading a delegation of other senior women, including the head of UN Women, Sima Bahous.

The team are tasked with speaking to senior Taliban leaders at the highest-possible level about reversing restrictions.

The ban on female aid workers is the latest in a raft of rules in recent months which also banned women from attending university, socialising in public parks, or even going to women-only gyms.
