We intend to give these women the ability to become independent.
For them to learn they have free will.
To know they can live their dreams in Australia
We have all been taught what to think through our schools and our families, learning how to think creatively and critically, knowing their personal values will be life-changing for the world.
These women have been taught they are property, just like cattle they belong to their father, then their husbands, and they can be bought and sold. They have no say in what happens to them, and they do not understand they have human rights, they are terrified of repercussions, which are swift and cruel.
Please help these Hazara girls
The challenges faced by these Hazara women are a tribute to their resilience in the face of adversity while they await their Australian visas, it serves as a testament to their strength and determination. Despite being forced to flee their homeland due to the escalating violence and persecution by the Taliban, they have not given up hope and continue to strive for a better future. Their journey has been filled with hardships, from separation from family members to encountering hostility and abuse in Pakistan. However, they have found solace and support in each other and the companionship of Sediqa, a fellow Hazara woman. Throughout their experiences, they have demonstrated the power of unity, hope, and perseverance, they inspire us all to stand up against injustice and fight for a better world.
These courageous women are still in the process of waiting for their Australian visas. Sughra is the mother of Shazia, Mahdi, Setara, and Farzam, because the Taliban was aggressively searching for her, she was forced to flee Afghanistan. Her youngest son, Farzam was with her at that time, they are now living in Germany. After Sughra and Farzam fled to Germany, Shazia assumed the responsibility of caring for her siblings who at that time were in Kabul.
Due to the escalating violence and persecution by the Taliban, these Hazara siblings were forced to flee again and seek refuge in Pakistan. Unfortunately, they have been met with hostility and abuse at every turn.
