WIDOWS SUPPORT
According to the United Nations, there are an estimated two million
women widows in Afghanistan Widowed Afghan women are often called “besarpana”,
meaning “without-a-head-of-household”. Regardless of whether they work or not
or can support their families or not, widowed women are not considered the
heads of their own families after their husbands pass. From national television
shows to governmental figures to local people, everyone uses the word
“besarpana” to describe widowed women without considering how condescending it
is. This term assumes that women always need a male head of household and they
cannot be considered the owners and decision-makers of their own lives. This
word and the thinking behind it is what leads family members and relatives to
interject in the lives of woman widows and make decisions about who they should
marry, where they should reside, etc. Afghan women who have been left to deal
with physical and psychological hardship as sole heads of household constitute
one of the most vulnerable social groups in the country. Now these widow do not
have someone is their home who can support them whether it’s financially or
other way, while they have to take care of their Children’s too AWF is
providing its best to provide the Basic facilities to these widows so they can
live their life.
