RAWA – Revolutionary Association of the Women of Afghanistan

It is one of the most active and successful independent Afghan women’s organizations in the social field both in Afghanistan and Pakistan among Afghan refugees.

RAWA is also very active in the political sphere with its fight against fundamentalism and religious obscurantism, publicly denouncing the warlords who are still in high government positions and the responsibilities of the USA and the West in having built, financed and legitimized regimes based on the violation of women’s rights, ignoring and suppressing any democratic opposition movement.

Since its inception, CISDA has supported the political and social work of the association by organizing delegations to Afghanistan, meetings to raise awareness and knowledge of the Afghan reality with RAWA representatives throughout Italy and fundraisers.
