Local Program Coordinator | Women’s Rights Activist

At the heart of Afghanistan, despite severe threats and restrictions, Sahra Sadeqi (pseudonym)

serves as a Local Program Coordinator for HOVIAT, playing a vital role in advancing the

organization’s activities and maintaining close connections with women inside the country.

With remarkable dedication and strict adherence to safety protocols, she contributes to

coordinating workshops, networking with local women, conducting needs assessments, and

supporting the implementation of educational and advocacy projects. Her efforts represent a

strong and reliable pillar of HOVIAT’s work within Afghanistan.

Due to the highly sensitive security situation, further details regarding her educational

background, professional experience, and exact location remain confidential. Nevertheless, her

behind-the-scenes contributions form an essential part of Afghan women’s civil resistance. We

express our deepest gratitude for the courage and commitment of women like Sahra and look

forward to a future in which, in a free and safe Afghanistan, their true names and faces can be

shared with the world.
