Afghan diplomatFranco-Afghan, Chékéba Hachemi fled her country during the Soviet invasion in 1986 and arrived in France at the age of 11.
In 1996, she founded the association Afghanistan Libre, dedicated to the dignity of Afghan women (www.afghanistan-libre.org), and has since carried out numerous projects in education, information, rural development, and health, primarily benefiting women and young girls. The association was put on hold with the arrival of the Taliban in August 2021.
In 2002, she co-founded, alongside the magazine ELLE, the publication ROZ, the first Afghan women’s magazine and the only Afghan monthly to be published without interruption since April 2002, addressing topics that interest and assist Afghan women in their daily lives.
