The “Khadijah al-Kubra” inaugural national and international exhibition for women, aimed at empowering entrepreneurial women, faces obstacles and low turnout due to economic hardships, Khaama Press reported. Women from various provinces, including Helmand, Nimruz, Herat, and Nangarhar, showcase their products, but limited attendance by women only hinders sales. The Taliban administration’s Ministry of Industry and Commerce announced the exhibition in collaboration with the Women’s Chamber of Commerce and Industries. Humaira, a visitor, appreciates such exhibitions but highlights the challenges women face due to restrictions and economic difficulties. She emphasizes the crucial role of women in the country’s economy and urges responsible institutions to create opportunities for women.
