 In her recent report, “Moving Mountains: The Vital Role of Afghan Women in Forging a Shared Future,” Palwasha Hassan identifies themes and priorities that diverse women’s groups could agree on, facilitates constructive dialogue among Afghan women, and aims to persuade policymakers to include women’s perspectives in any future dialogues on Afghanistan. 

In this roundtable with Palwasha Hassan, Afghan women’s rights activist who founded the Afghan Women’s Educational Center, participants will have the opportunity to engage in an intimate discussion of the report, discuss its recommendations, and devise strategies to ensure that its findings are reflected in future Afghanistan-related policies. Ambassador Melanne Verveer, Executive Director of the Georgetown Institute for Women, Peace and Security, will moderate the timely conversation.
