The guest speaker in February 2023 is Tahmina Salik from Afghanistan.
She will tell us about the women’s situation after the TALIBAN came into power in her country.
Tahmina Salik is the co-founder & chairperson of NGO PAREI, a non-profit organization working to eliminate poverty, promote gender equality and create better opportunities for Afghan people.
Thus far, Tahmina and her team have helped many families establish their businesses. She leads the Danish- Afghan women & diaspora forum (DAKDIF), where she advocates for women’s rights in Denmark and Afghanistan.
The organization also recently developed a menstruation educational booklet, an animated video and distributed over 4,000 reusable pads to Afghan girls.

She is an advisory board member at Warfair and at Danish Refugee Council’s DIIPS program and participates as board member at Afghan-Danish Women’s Association (ADKA).
