2019 motto: "Just try new things. Don't be afraid. Step out of your comfort zones and soar, all right?" - Michelle Obama 📷 @jennygnichols #afghancycles
This week we are inspired by @yalla.lets.bike. The Syrian initiative started by Sarah Zein is a social movement that has helped get 4,000 women cycling in Syria. Her work was recently recognized by the UN Momentum for Change #climateaction award, which highlights innovative solutions to climate change. “Be creative and find a way of doing things - even I the conditions of the situation would suggest there is little hope you can change something,” Zain told @reuters. 📷 @yalla.lets.bike #cycling #womensrights

"I think the future of sports in Afghanistan is complicated, but I have hope that it will gradually progress and get better. It would be great if men in Afghanistan could start by accepting biking as a means of travel and entertainment for women. In the old days, women rode horses and donkeys. What is the difference with the bike in modern day? I hope that biking will become normal for girls in Afghanistan and we’ll be able to do it freely and without harassment." - Masomah Alizada. Thank you so much to @freewomenwriters for writing about the film and featuring an exclusive interview with Masomah. Check out freewomenwriters.org to read! #afgancycles #womencycling #womensrights
