Network on Elimination of Gender Apartheid

ENDING GENDER APARTHEID
FOR JUSTICE AND EQUALITY

WHO WE ARE

A Unified Voice Against Gender Apartheid in Afghanistan

The Gender Apartheid Abolition Network (NEGA) was formed in response to the systematic escalation of gender apartheid in Afghanistan. We are an independent, Afghan-centric, and feminist-driven coalition of activists, researchers, and civil society organizations united by a shared belief: ending this system requires a collective, inclusive, and independent movement.

Rooted in intersectional feminism and collective leadership, we strive for a just, free, and equal society. Our mission is to advocate for the official recognition and criminalization of gender apartheid, document the realities on the ground, and mobilize global support to defend the fundamental rights and human dignity of Afghan women and girls.

Our Vision

A just and equal society free from gender discrimination, where fundamental civil liberties and human dignity are upheld for all.

Our Mission

To advocate, document, and mobilize global solidarity to end gender apartheid and hold perpetrators accountable.

What is Gender Apartheid?
Gender apartheid is the systematic, institutionalized segregation and oppression of individuals based on their gender. In Afghanistan, it represents one of the most severe forms of systematic human rights violations, actively erasing women and girls from educational, political, social, cultural, and economic spheres. Recognizing and criminalizing gender apartheid under international law is not just a legal necessity—it is a moral imperative to restore justice, equality, and human dignity.
