Women's Education in Afghanistan_Team B1D

Educated women are good citizens and leaders and can help teach moral values, reduce corruption and restore peace and rebuild the country.

Denying the education of girls, who form the next generation of Afghan women, means that the Taliban and its supporters are trying to keep Afghanistan unstable for many years, because no educated woman will raise a generation of suicide bombers and murderers.

In Afghanistan, religion has always been one of the political tools to justify the government’s actions. The Taliban also sometimes give them a religious color to justify their actions. Taliban also link this matter with religious order.

While the Taliban’s statements and actions frequently contradict each other, donors emphasize judging them by their actions. To do this effectively, donors need consistent and trustworthy information about the Taliban’s activities to make informed decisions about funding and conditions, especially in the education sector. Coordination among donors is also crucial to apply collective pressure on human rights and share insights.

What steps can donors take to ensure they receive regular and reliable information about the Taliban’s actions?

Despite the benefits of girls’ education, 31 million girls are still deprived of education worldwide, and we now have more than 518 million illiterate women worldwide who were once girls and are still illiterate. Most of them are residents of developing countries.
And a higher percentage is related to Afghan women and girls, which has increased during these three and a half years.

Denying education to girls aims to keep Afghanistan unstable by preventing the rise of educated women who would raise future generations against violence and extremism. This tactic undermines the country’s long-term stability and development.

Despite the clear benefits of girls’ education, 31 million girls globally are still deprived of schooling, contributing to the over 518 million illiterate women worldwide, predominantly in developing countries. This issue is particularly acute in Afghanistan, where the situation has worsened in recent years.

The main obstacles to girls’ education, including in Afghanistan, are the lack of adequate schools, poverty, security problems, early marriage and pregnancy, discrimination against women and girls’ education, and the preference for boys’ education over girls’.
that in the last three and a half years this biggest problem has penetrated among the intellectuals of the society and they are seriously trying to solve this problem

You mentioned a very good point, the Taliban are afraid of women’s education, and they know that educated women will have educated and righteous children, who will pick up pen instead of a gun.

I agree, in Afghanistan, religion has historically been used as a political tool to justify government actions. The Taliban continue this practice, often framing their actions in religious terms to lend them legitimacy.

Exactly

That is why, some non-Muslim countries and people are afraid of the name of Islam, unfortunately and unfortunately some groups like the Taliban introduced Islam to the world as a religion of terror and fear.

While real Islam is not like this. Islam has very beautiful and good orders for every work and every group of people, there is no such thing as fear and terror in Islam.

You’re right. The primary barriers to girls’ education in Afghanistan include insufficient schools, poverty, security issues, early marriage and pregnancy, and gender discrimination. Over the past three and a half years, these challenges have become more widely recognized among the country’s intellectuals, who are now actively working to address and resolve them.

Achieving higher education and having high scientific skills is one of the most key factors in the development of individual and group abilities and capacities.
Contrary to this is ignorance, stupidity and lies.

Regrettably, groups like the Taliban have portrayed Islam as a religion of terror and fear, leading to misconceptions and fear of Islam in some non-Muslim countries. This misrepresentation has caused undue fear and misunderstanding of the faith.

Your opinion is right. True Islam is a religion of peace and compassion, offering positive guidance for all aspects of life. It does not promote fear or terror, contrary to the misrepresentations seen from extremist groups.

Education of women is the best way to develop their health, growth and improvement of their cultural-economic status. Education, especially university education, is one of the important factors for the development of any country and is considered a part of the basic human rights.

Totally agree. Higher education and advanced scientific skills are crucial for individual and collective development. In contrast, ignorance, misinformation, and deceit hinder progress and growth.

Regarding the second question, I want to say that for closing girl’s school in Afghanistan, the Taliban is not the only one involved, many groups and factors inside and outside Afghanistan support them.
