Since taking power, the Taliban has cracked down on human rights and has deprived women and girls of fundamental freedoms. The outlook for productive engagement is dim. Yet there may have been a window, in the early months after the fall of the Republic, to do things differently. Researcher Ashley Jackson speaks to aid workers and activists involved in direct negotiations with the Taliban as well as representatives from the US and Taliban governments. And she takes a look at two intertwined questions. What might have been done differently then? And what should, or could, be done now?

Once it became clear that U.S. troops were leaving Afghanistan, the situation on the ground turned to panic. In August 2021, radio reporter Shirin Jaafari found herself in the middle of the effort to find safe passage for Najiba Noor, a 27-year-old Afghan policewoman who was the target of threats and harassment by the Taliban. For this episode, Shirin reconnects with Noor and speaks with other people directly involved in Digital Dunkirk—a mostly online, grassroots effort to help vulnerable Afghans get to safety.

When a diplomatic deal goes bad, the blame usually falls on the politicians. Often we don’t even remember the names of the negotiators. But in the wake of the return of the Taliban, a lot of people have blamed one man: US Ambassador Zalmay Khalilzad. Khalilzad was born in Afghanistan but has served in the US government since the 1980s. He was at Bonn, and he later served as US Ambassador to Afghanistan, Iraq and the United Nations. Khalilzad sat down with reporter Andrew North to discuss what went wrong – and right – during the negotiations for peace in Afghanistan.
