4)Continued emphasis on human rights, the full range of human rights including protection from torture & inhumane treatment (Reports of TB utilizing punishments like blackening faces, etc), freedom of expression, cultural rights, protection of cultural monuments

5) Continued scrutiny of Taliban on women and girls rights. Full range of women’s legal rights must be upheld & protected. If TB claim this is the case, they can not repress right to work, they should also hold accountable those fighters who violate, suppress women’s human rights
