Based primarily on interviews and focus group discussions with more than two hundred academics, politicians, entrepreneurs, journalists, teachers, students, and civil society activists between January and March 2015, this paper examines the state of women’s leadership in Afghanistan. The authors first discuss definitions of leadership and how it is commonly perceived, they then examine the efforts made in Afghanistan to promote women's leadership. Finally, they provide recommendations to Afghanistan's government, civil society, and the media on how they could better promote women's leadership.
