14 July 2015 - In this week’s Afghanistan Emrooz programme, we discuss the relationship between gender equality and development. We ask how Afghan women can play their role in the country’s development despite the many challenges they face including illiteracy and harmful traditions that are still practiced in some rural areas. For this programme Afghanistan Emrooz talked with youth and civil society activists and included the coverage of UNWomen’s HeForShe Global campaign launch in Afghanistan.
