Role: Editor
On August 15, 2021 the Taliban took control of Afghanistan and the lives of those across the country changed in the blink of an eye. On that day, women’s rights, advances and freedom were taken away, which included the right to play sport. Members from the Afghan women’s national football team were forced into hiding, burning their jerseys and burying their trophies. But with the help of their former national captain, Khalida Popal, they were able to flee the country. They have finally been reunited in Australia, after six long months.
Speaking out, they hope to still be recognised as the Afghan women’s national football team, continuing to raise awareness so that one day they can be with their loved ones and bring them to safety. To help continue their fight for justice and equality, a new @hummelsport Afghan national football jersey is available at www.landsholdsshoppen.dk/en/afghanistan, with 100% of profits generated from sales being donated to the team and their fight for equality.
