The Kurdistan Women's Community (KJK) launched a campaign to draw attention to the struggles of women in Shengal and Afghanistan. Between 3 August, the anniversary of the Islamic State attack on the Yazidi area of Shengal in South Kurdistan in 2014, and 15 August, the day the Taliban took power in Afghanistan in 2021, the fate and struggles of women will be discussed.

In two separate events, women in France expressed their solidarity with the KJK campaign launched under the motto "We Stand with Afghan and Shengal women against the attacks of hegemonic men".

One of the events was organized by internationalist women at Larzac, where women set up a camp and wrote “Jin, Jiyan, Azadî” (Woman, Life, Freedom) with their bodies.

“At our resistance meetings, we express our solidarity with the women in Shengal and Afghanistan. Feeding on capitalist modernity, patriarchy stands at the root of femicide and ecocide. We will respond to attacks with solidarity and organization from an internationalist perspective.”

The second message of solidarity with the KJK campaign was voiced during an event organized by the Coordination of Feminist Women in France. Speaking after the gathering, women denounced 3 August as the day of femicide in Shengal and 15 August as the day of femicide in Afghanistan. Calling for self-defense in response to femicide, women said: “Long live women’s resistance against patriarchy and all dictatorships. Self-defense against ISIS and the Taliban. Jin, Jiyan, Azadî.”
