'''Anjuman-i Himayat-i-Niswan''' ('Association for the Protection of Women') was a women's organization in [[Afghanistan]], founded in 1928.<ref>Julie Billaud: ''[https://ift.tt/3nl4PUh Kabul Carnival: Gender Politics in Postwar Afghanistan]''</ref>
It was founded by Seraj al-Banat and Queen [[Soraya Tarzi]]. Its purpose was to encourage women to use the new reformed laws in women's rights introduced by king [[Amanullah Khan]], such as the ban on polygamy and the new marriage and divorce law, and to enforce the policy of women's emancipation introduced by the government. Women were encouraged to refuse the veil and gender segregation in the example of the Queen, to educate themselwes and become professionals to contribute to society. The society was chaired by the king's sister, Kubrah.<ref>''[https://ift.tt/2LfT1nR Interrogating Imperialism: Conversations on Gender, Race, and War]''</ref>
The emancipation policy was however extremely controversial and difficult to enforce in Afghan society, and King Amanullah Khan and Queen Sorya Tarzi were deposed in 1929. Their deposition from power was followed by a severe backlash on women's rights under their successor [[Habibullah Ghazi]], who banned school for girls, reintroduced the veil and forced women back in to gender segregation.<ref>Julie Billaud: ''[https://ift.tt/3nl4PUh Kabul Carnival: Gender Politics in Postwar Afghanistan]''</ref>
