Six months after the withdrawal of U.S. and NATO military forces from Afghanistan — and the country’s subsequent fall to the Taliban — an estimated 200,000 Afghans who helped the U.S. remain in the country, fearing for their lives. At the same time, the more than 100,000 Afghans able to be evacuated to the United States have only temporary status; they need ways to stay permanently.
In this webcast, you’ll discover how Cornell University and its partners have helped Afghans at risk, what remains to be done, and how you can help. Advocates and immigration policy experts from No One Left Behind, Human Rights First, and the Immigrant Advocates Response Collaborative will discuss how they’re working to ensure the rights and safety of Afghans fleeing persecution under the Taliban.
