Nehan emphasized that no single group, including the Taliban, can represent all Afghans.

Akbar stated. She criticized the meeting's format, suggesting it "appears to achieve nothing other than appeasing the Taliban."

"Given the instances of violence and torture against women, gender apartheid in Afghanistan must be recognized," the statement read.

"Over 500 brave members, mostly from inside Afghanistan, urge the UN to reaffirm its commitment to human rights and gender.

Over the past three years, the Taliban has imposed severe restrictions on Afghan women and girls, barring them from access.

The group also stressed the need to avoid any “whitewashing” of the Taliban during the meeting.
