## Resource

Women in Afghanistan face crushing restrictions under the Taliban, stripped of basic freedoms like education, work, and travel—leaving many feeling like a mistake to exist. For those who once worked on Canadian-funded projects empowering women, hope lay in Canada’s Special Immigration Measures Program. One woman, X, received official endorsements but never got an invitation to apply—her application later canceled amid thousands of others lost in bureaucratic silence. Betrayed by promises of safety, she now battles depression while seeking any path out, even considering marriage for protection, and has appealed directly to Canada’s Prime Minister, pleading not to be forgotten.
