"Under Taliban rule, Afghan women, who make up more than half of the country’s population, face systematic restrictions in accessing education, employment, and other fundamental rights. Despite efforts to silence their voices, Afghan women have not given up; they have adopted Innovative strategies to challenge the regime using digital activism and local resistance. This study focuses on the utilization of activism by Afghan women to challenge the repressive policies imposed by the Taliban regime. The primary purpose of this study is to investigate how the voice of Afghan women in social media and local cultural resistance can influence global conversations about gender equality and women’s rights in the context of Afghanistan. Guided by digital activism theory, this study first draws on in-depth qualitative interviews with eighteen Afghan women who played key roles in organizing protests against the regime’s policies. Second, a cultural discourse analysis of tweets posted by active women on Platform X was conducted to examine how digital tools enhance the visibility of women’s messages through creative strategies and flexible forms of resistance. The results showed that despite facing severe threats, women used creative strategies and flexible civic actions to reclaim lost rights and adhere to their protest goals." (Abstract)
