Square des femmes afghanes luttant pour leur liberté

This small, quiet green space in the twentieth arrondissement carries a name that serves as a deliberate act of international solidarity. Previously known as the Square des Gres, the city renamed this site in two thousand twenty-five to honor the ongoing resistance of Afghan women. By dedicating a public park to their struggle, the city specifically highlights the systematic erasure of women from public life under the current regime in Afghanistan, where they face bans on education, employment, and even access to parks and public spaces. The choice to place this tribute here transforms a local neighborhood garden into a permanent, public reminder of the universal fight for freedom and human rights.
