Today, the main industrialised nations are discussing the future of Afghanistan at a special G20 summit.

No stability and peace without protecting women and girls

Twenty years ago, countries including Germany pledged to come to the assistance of Afghan women and girls. Today that assistance is desperately needed, more than ever.
