I programmi di assistenza umanitaria e di cooperazione allo sviluppo dipendono dalle donne per definire il tipo di aiuti, per garantire che questi arrivino alle donne e ai bambini, e per amministrare programmi rivolti alle donne, per esempio quelli per le madri o per le vedove.

Ishaq, a high-ranking member of the Jamiat-e Islami faction, had been criticized by moderates in the Afghan government because of his refusal to heed the standards and norms for broadcasting set forth by the Culture Ministry.
But rank-and-file members of the Jamiat-e Islami faction headed by Rabbani told RFE/RL on 13 January that they think the broadcasts are un-Islamic and that the ban should be reimposed.
There are strong indications that the issue of broadcasting female singers is still a sensitive one in Kabul -- particularly among members of the fundamentalist Jamiat-e Islami faction that formed the backbone of the former Northern Alliance (United Front) that helped the U.S. military topple the Taliban in late 2001.
