Five years after the Taliban's return to power, Asma Kakar, a former BBC Afghanistan journalist and now heading the Afghan Journalists in Exile programme at the Rosa Luxemburg Stiftung South Asia, speaks about what has changed for women and girls in Afghanistan: banned salons, forced marriage, a healthcare system in collapse, and the quiet, everyday forms of resistance that persist.
