Dear Supporter,
After stating that she would be displaying the signatures in her office “where everyone can see them,” First Lady Ghani reaffirmed her commitment to ending violence against women and asked that we give you this message:
I’d like to say a huge thanks for being a part of our groundbreaking campaign for the rights of women and girls in Afghanistan. Together, we made sure the safety and advancement of women was high on the list of priorities of the new Afghan government.
Recently, Amnesty International delegates represented you on a trip to Afghanistan where we met with the Afghan President Ashraf Ghani and later presented your signature - with 102,497 others - to First Lady Rula Ghani.
"We are doing everything to support Afghan women and women human rights defenders and we are fighting for the same cause as you, though it may be in different fronts and through different means."
