Women in Afghanistan in the 1950s.
Women were once again granted voting rights in 1964 after a new constitution marked the next era of modern democracy. Along with voting rights, women were allowed to run for office. Despite several government coups and changes in power, over the next decade freedoms for all Afghan citizens were increased. Women were encouraged to get an education and vote, at least in the cities.
