exhibition is very good,& said Mahnaz, a participant of the expo
&People encourage us a lot which makes us proud
But so far, we could not sell because the people&s economy has become very weak.&Like Mahnaz, there are many women who play their role in
the economic growth of individuals and the country, and through commercial activities, they want to convey the message that Afghan women
have the capabilities in various sectors, especially business, although they do not seem satisfied enough with their sales.&They
(authorities) should provide us with the ground for growth; allow us to grow in different fields; Afghanistan has many talents in every
field,& said Noreen, a participant of the expo.The visitors also emphasize on supporting women in business and on the use of women&s
products.&This exhibition has a very positive effect on Afghan girls
They can showcase their products and promote their businesses,& said Zakira, a visitor.Organizers say that women have showcased mostly
handicrafts, hand-made dresses, food and non-food items.According to the statistics of the Afghanistan International Expo Center, in the
