Nearly three years have passed since the Taliban closed the doors of schools to girls from the sixth grade onwards in Afghanistan. In light of this ongoing crisis, we will discuss the following from 1:30 PM to 4:00 PM today.
Description and the time schedule:
1:30 PM -4:00 PM Summary Phase: Please work collaboratively as a team to summarize the top 5 key problems and their best ideas and solutions generated over the past two days. For each question, list the top 5 main issues and then the top 5 solutions:
How do you think online technology can be useful as an alternative for girls to gain access to education in Afghanistan?
What key issues do girls in Afghanistan face in accessing the internet and online educational tools?
What solutions do you propose to address and resolve these issues and help girls access the internet and online education in Afghanistan?
1: The Taliban’s decision to shut down schools for women may have been driven by their strict interpretation of Islamic law, which limits women’s access to education and public life. They may have also seen women’s education as a challenge to their traditional beliefs and control over society.
2: The factors that likely contributed to the Taliban’s closure of women’s schools include their strict interpretation of Islamic law, concerns about women’s education conflicting with traditional beliefs, and a desire to maintain societal control.
3: Resolving the issues behind the Taliban’s closure of women’s schools requires diplomatic engagement to negotiate with Taliban leaders, advocacy for women’s education rights, and support for local communities and organizations working to reopen schools for women. International pressure and assistance for education initiatives can also help create a more favorable environment for reopening women’s schools in Afghanistan.
The Taliban’s decision to close girls’ schools in Afghanistan is influenced by several key issues and factors:
1:Ideological Beliefs.
2:Cultural Norms.
3:Control and Authority.
4:International Relations.
5:Security Concerns.
I think The reason which Taliban close grills schools is:
1:The Control and Authority stance on girls’ education has complicated their relationship with the international community. While they seek recognition and aid, their policies often clash with global norms and human rights standards. However, some factions within the Taliban might use the issue as a bargaining chip in negotiations.
2:In many parts of Afghanistan, particularly in rural areas, conservative cultural norms view the education of girls as unnecessary or inappropriate. The Taliban’s policies often reflect these local customs and beliefs.
3.There are differing opinions within the Taliban itself. Some leaders might be more open to girls’ education but face opposition from hardliners within the group. This internal conflict can lead to inconsistent policies.
The resons behind the Talibans decision to close schools for women can be: the want to slow down the self awareness. For instance: if women don’t know about their rights Taliban can easily divestment their rights. The want to divestment the rights of women.
Accessing to education is one of the fundamental rights, by closing schools Taliban take this fundamental right from women in Afghanistan and they used many excuses regarding this however they used Islam also as an excuse.
In my points solutions to this problem is:
1:International Pressure and Diplomacy.
2:Economic Incentives.
It mean to development of economic projects to open grills schools.
3.Cultural Sensitivity,
Working within cultural norms and engaging local leaders and communities to advocate for girls’ education can help change perceptions.
4.Providing humanitarian aid that supports both boys’ and girls’ education without discrimination can help normalize the idea of girls attending school.
In addition ,The Taliban adhere to a strict interpretation of Sharia law, which they believe restricts the education of women and girls. This fundamentalist viewpoint prioritizes traditional roles for women as homemakers and mothers.
I agree but in some cases they are pretending that they are faciltating convenient rights and suitable environment for women to study they emphasize we will let them after comfortable place for education
As afghan society is one of tha most primitive society people often think in suborbs that women must work at home and reach the children and housework meanwhile men should work out of home in lands offices and bussinesses
How much time is being wasted for Afghan girls, and for establishing a new education system, a specific timeframe should be set. They should determine thet how long we should wait to new education system four years or maybe 5 years…
