Banoo Podcast is a women-led audio platform amplifying the voices, experiences, and demands of Afghan women and girls. We document and challenge gender apartheid in Afghanistan — a system stripping women of education, work, movement, and public life.
Through conversations, analysis, and personal stories, we examine the political, legal, and human rights context shaping women’s lives. We host advocates, defenders, researchers, and global voices to explore causes, consequences, accountability, and the world’s responsibility to act.
Alongside expert discussions, we share firsthand accounts from inside Afghanistan — revealing both hardship and the unyielding courage, resistance, and determination of women and girls. Our mission: break the silence, raise awareness, and build global solidarity. We believe Afghan women must be heard directly, not spoken for. We connect lived experience with informed analysis so their stories cross borders, fuel debate, and advance equality, dignity, justice, and freedom
