In two days, the Afghanistan Women’s National Football Team will be absent from the 2026 AFC Women’s Asian Cup Qualifiers draw. This marks the second World Cup-qualifying cycle from which the team has been excluded since 2021.
FIFA must recognize, support Afghan women’s team in exile ✊ ⚽

Tydelig svar fra UiBs rektor og rektorkandidat: UiB skal være tydelige forkjempere for den akademiske friheten ved å støtte UiB-forskere under press, jobbe nasjonalt og internasjonalt for å reverse endringer i USA og bygge beredskap for å sikre fri forskning i Norge og Europa, støtte kollegaer i USA
Et universitet er bare et universitet om det er fritt og uavhengig
Når verdens ledende forskningsnasjon og verdens beste universiteter rammes, angår det forskningen og universiteter globalt. Vi vil være tydelige forkjempere for den akademiske friheten.
