On 16 June Members will have a discussion with Richard Bennett, UN Special Representative on the situation of human rights in Afghanistan, on the alarming human rights situation in Afghanistan, despite Taliban's initial promises concerning upholding human rights. The discussion will focus on support to civil society and, equally importantly, integrating a gender perspective.
These two aspects are at the heart of DROI'S concerns and the European Parliament strongly condemns both ongoing harassment, intimidation and killings of the human rights defenders, and brutally trampling women's and girls' fundamental freedoms.
