Afghan women clad in burqa walk up a hill at the old part of Kabul
Afghan women clad in burqa walk up a hill at the old part of Kabul, May 10, 2012. As the U.S. charts a way out of a decade-long unpopular war, Afghan girls are back in school, infant and maternal survival rates are up and a quarter of the Parliaments seats are reserved for women who at least on paper have the same voting, mobility and other rights as men.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Danish Siddiqui, a group of Afghan women gracefully make their way up a hill in the old part of Kabul. The year is 2012, and as the United States seeks an exit strategy from its decade-long war in Afghanistan, signs of progress can be seen. These resilient women are clad in burqas, traditional garments that cover them from head to toe. Despite the challenges faced by Afghan society, there are reasons for hope. Girls have returned to school after years of oppression, infant and maternal survival rates have improved significantly, and women now hold a quarter of the seats in Parliament. On paper at least, they enjoy equal rights to vote and move freely like their male counterparts. The image showcases not only the external environment but also offers glimpses into Afghan culture and religion. Against a backdrop of blue skies and stone buildings, these women navigate their way through life with strength and determination. Their silhouettes against the mountainous landscape serve as a powerful symbol of resilience. This photograph serves as a reminder that even amidst adversity, progress can be made. It highlights both the challenges still faced by Afghan women while celebrating their resilience and perseverance on this uphill journey towards equality.
