Afghan Independent Human Rights Commission

The Afghan Independent Human Rights Commission (AIHRC) was established in 2002 to promote and protect human rights in Afghanistan, particularly after years of conflict and oppression. It was tasked with investigating human rights abuses, advocating for victims' rights, and educating the public about their rights. The commission worked independently to hold the government accountable and influence policies. Despite facing numerous challenges, including security threats and political instability, the AIHRC aimed to foster a culture of respect for human rights in Afghan society. Its role was crucial in advancing democracy and justice in the country.
