During the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender Violence (Nov. 25 – Dec. 10), Stop Street Harassment is featuring activists who took action against street harassment this year, one new country per day.
Day #8: Afghanistan
In one of the most dangerous countries in the world for women, the organization Young Women for Change tackles many issues of gender inequality, including street harassment. This past year, they conducted a major study on street harassment (the results are pending), hosted a debate about the best ways to respond to harassers, organized an art exhibit on the subject, and created films and articles about their experiences.
