Malala joins campaign group Action for Afghanistan to march for freedom of Afghan women and girls

The Nobel laureate and activist called on the UK and powerful countries to do more to help them.
28 Nov, 2022

In a world that seeks to suppress women, Malala refuses to back down and now she is working hard to make sure no woman has to cut her wings to survive. The Nobel laureate and activist joined a march to fight for the freedom of Afghan women.

On Sunday, she shared photos from the march and wrote, “We must stand against the Taliban’s oppression — and against any government or leader who refuses to step up and confront gender persecution while women and girls fight alone. Today I joined Action for Afghanistan in London to march for Afghan women and girls — and to call on the UK and other powerful countries to do more to help them.”

According to The Guardian, thousands of people were expected to take to London’s streets on Sunday calling on the UK government to create a safe asylum route for Afghan women and girls at risk.

The key asks of the march organised by campaign group Action for Afghanistan are listed on their website. They include a global summit for Afghan women, UK negotiations with the Taliban centring the fundamental human rights of Afghan women and asylum and resettlement route for Afghan women at risk.

The march for freedom for Afghan women and girls in London followed members of Parliament (MPs) appealing to foreign secretary, James Cleverly, for a renewed focus on women and girls at risk after Britain’s 20-year campaign in the country.

“The Afghan relocations and assistance policy scheme simply isn’t working, and there isn’t a dedicated route for women and girls,” said the Liberal Democrat MP Wendy Chamberlain. “That programme has been lost in the narrative around Ukraine, but also lost in the narrative around small boats.

“We have gotten to the stage where the Afghanistan situation is in the too-difficult basket and those who worked with and supported the UK and other troops over the last two decades have been left behind.”

Malala is the strongest catalyst for the universal female education and progress in humanity.

Man and woman are the two wheels of a cart of development that must be equal, to move forward in progress and development. Even if they are slightly unequal, the cart of the human destiny cannot move forward and would only move in a circle, to ever remain at the same place, only moving in that circle.

For a second I thought this “poster woman for Western whitewashing war on terror” did a honest effort on the ground for the girls in the region. How very safe and convenient to hold a placard and get photographed in London.

Lets face it Malala is not loved in Pakistan. Her detractors vary there are some who are just jealous, others join the conspiracy circus saying her father wanted UK residency he planned this sad incident. Others think she is a WEST plant to make Pakistan look back. But they never answer this burning question how did you allow Malala or any other child be shot at going to school. her detractors need to answer why they could not protect them or any other of Gods angels.

The US is planning to deport 80,000 Afghans because many did not qualify for evacuation and they are mostly young men, and guess where they will end? In Pakistan... Because there are no direct flights to Afghanistan. Pakistan must make sure not to take a single one. We are full.

All you always vilifying Malala, I would ask how you would feel coming back to Pakistan, the Land of the so-called Pure, after being shot in the head by a bunch of neanderthal illiterate "mullahs". Yea I'm sure you would want to come back. 99% of Pakistanis would do anything to get out of here for Western countries that you bad mouth. If I offer you a permanent visa to the U.K or U.S., every single one of you would dance in joy. Hypocrites. You're just jealous of Malala cause she's smarter than all of you and a fighter. Dawn please publish my comment.
