The Taliban’s war on women

The Global Jigsaw

The Taliban's return to power in Afghanistan has led to the erasure of women from public life.

Three years after the group took the capital Kabul, our experts explain what life is like for half of the population and why women have become a proxy for the nation’s image of itself.
