Girls who are marginalized don’t access to internet, in other hand Taliban also banned girls to travel for education purposes.

Education plays an important role for women and girls, who are the future mother and role model to thier children. An educated women can train thier children with bright thoughts and believes.
Mothers are the first teacher and role mudel for thier children who can deliver new things to her child.

Security concerns: In some parts of Afghanistan, girls and women face threats of violence or harassment if they attend school. This can be from extremist groups who oppose female education, or from individuals who believe that women should not be educated.

I appreciate you bringing up the security concerns in Afghanistan regarding girls and women attending school. It is indeed a challenging issue that needs to be addressed.

Considering our previous discussion on this topic, what are your thoughts on potential solutions to ensure the safety of girls and women while attending school in these areas? Do you have any ideas or suggestions on how we can overcome these security threats?

Unfortunately, there are still many people in Afghanistan who are against the presence of girls in universities and schools, and the governments of the last 20 years have not been able to create a culture in this field. Therefore, for a permanent solution to this problem, we need culturalization and an alternative interpretation of the Taliban’s interpretation of religion and religion."

The summary elucidates the grave education crisis faced by women and girls in post-2021 Afghanistan as a result of the Taliban’s closure of girls’ schools. It emphasizes the crucial need for a secure and inclusive environment, enhanced educational prospects, gender bias eradication, and collaborative efforts. By shedding light on the ramifications of denying education to girls, it urges immediate international action. Additionally, it acknowledges the hurdles of cultural norms and security challenges. This comprehensive discourse strives to empower Afghan women and girls by guaranteeing equitable educational opportunities.

Lack of infrastructure: Many schools in Afghanistan do not have adequate facilities or resources, which can make it difficult for girls to learn. This includes things like safe transportation, clean water and sanitation, and adequate teaching materials.

In Afghanistan, it is crucial to establish a supportive environment where girls can access education. To promote this, steps such as reopening schools and providing safe transportation can be taken. Additionally, ensuring the availability of qualified teachers and creating awareness programs within communities can further enhance girls’ education. By focusing on these aspects, we can work towards a brighter future where educational opportunities are accessible to all.

I would like to provide the SUMMARY : I can summarize the given text as follows: The discussion focuses on the education crisis faced by women and girls in post-2021 Afghanistan. The closure of girls’ schools by the Taliban is a major factor. The text stresses the need for a safe and inclusive educational environment, challenging societal norms, and international cooperation. The consequences of denying education to girls are emphasized, and the international community is urged to take immediate action to ensure equal access to education for Afghan women and girls.

Wow, a whole schedule dedicated to generating ideas and solutions. Because we all know that’s going to make a real difference in Afghanistan. What a waste of time. Let’s just sit around and talk about it, because that’s definitely going to solve all the problems in a country that’s been plagued by conflict and instability for decades. Good luck with that.

I think that educational restrictions on women will cause many losses to them, including depression, which most women will suffer from, and their stress will increase day by day.

I appreciate your input and the insights you’ve shared about the potential consequences of educational restrictions on women. It’s important to consider the impact on mental health, such as the increased risk of depression and growing stress levels.

Can you think of any specific strategies or approaches that could help address these challenges? How do you believe we can work towards reducing educational restrictions for women and creating more inclusive opportunities? I’d love to hear your thoughts on this.

From my point of view, the international community should prioritize funding and resources to support organizations and programs by online studies that promote women’s education in Afghanistan.

The current situation will not remain stable and soon hope and radical change will replace this situation.

I appreciate your positive outlook and belief in the potential for change. Can you please share more about the specific changes you envision and how they may lead to a more stable future?

Taliban are claiming that Afghanistan has no security issues. So how come security/ secure place can be an excuse!?
