Taking myself out of the darkness: Afghan women human rights defenders fight for recognition
2022
"Since the takeover of Afghanistan by the Taliban in August 2021, millions of women have been displaced within Afghanistan and forced to flee to other countries as they face an enormous roll-back of their most basic human rights. Afghan women have long mobilized for their rights, and women human rights defenders (WHRDs) inside and outside of the country continue to resist the oppressive rule of the Taliban, even while their activism brings grave risks to themselves and their families."

Born Digital Monographic Reports and Papers
Princeton University Library's (PUL) instance of DSpace once served as a digital repository meant for both archiving and publicly disseminating at-risk digital data which was identified and collected by members of the PUL community. In 2025, all items from both categories were migrated to Figgy - PUL's digital repository.
