二十世纪后期，性别平等问题再次成为全球议程上的重大问题。于 1985 年结束的联合国妇女十年启动了将妇女纳入发展的进程，引发了数以千计的妇女组织的形成，并将它们在世界各地建立了网络。这一趋势在接下来的十年中加速。 1993年，维也纳世界会议宣布妇女权利是人权； 1994年，开罗国际人口与发展会议将妇女赋权和健康置于可持续发展方案的中心。两年后，北京第四次世界妇女大会通过了一个旨在促进和保护所有妇女充分享有人权和基本自由的平台。尽管世界许多地方在性别平等方面取得了实质性进展，但正如系统指标所表明的那样，巨大的差距仍然存在。在许多地方，大多数妇女的生活仍然悲惨。阿富汗是最具压迫性的政权之一，妇女和女童生活在塔利班推行的极端伊斯兰法之下。她们被剥夺了受教育的机会，被禁止进入工作场所，如果没有男性同伴和从头到脚都罩着罩袍，她们就无法冒险在公共场合外出。她们获得医疗保健的机会有限，包括法律禁止男医生为女性提供治疗，并且普遍存在家庭暴力和国家合法暴力的威胁。
During the late twentieth century, the issue of gender equality once again became a major issue on the global agenda. The UN Decade for Women, which ended in 1985, initiated the integration of women into development, triggering the formation of thousands of women's organizations and networking them across the world. The trend accelerated during the following decade. In 1993, the Vienna World Conference proclaimed that women's rights were human rights; in 1994, the Cairo International Conference on Population and Development placed women's empowerment and health at the center of sustainable development programs. Two years later, the Beijing Fourth World Conference on Women adopted a platform seeking to promote and protect the full enjoyment of human rights and fundamental freedoms for all women. Although there has been substantial progress toward gender equality in much of the world, great disparities persist, as systematic indicators demonstrate. In many places, most women's lives remain wretched. Afghanistan was among the most oppressive regimes, with women and girls living under an extreme version of Islamic law introduced by the Taliban. They were denied education, barred from the workplace, and unable to venture out in public without a male companion and the full head-to-toe covering of the burqa . They suffered from limited access to health care, including laws forbidding treatment of women by male doctors, and pervasive threats of domestic and state-legitimated violence.
