Islamabad, Oct 21 (IANS) In the global ranking of women peace and security, Afghanistan sits at the last place as the country's women fear of complete and outright discrimination, since the Taliban have taken control of the Asian country.
According to a report published by Georgetown University's Institute for Women, Peace and Security, Afghanistan sits at the bottom among at least 170 countries.
"Afghanistan has fallen to last place out of 170 countries. The country's absolute score is almost 30 per cent lower that in 2017, driven by worsening rates of violence and worsening community safety," said Jeni Klugman, Managing Director, Georgetown Institute for Women, Peace and Security.
