RASC News Agency: The United Nations Fund known as “Education Can’t Wait” has asked world leaders to support the right to education and education of Afghanistani women and girls by publishing its annual report.
In its annual report, this organization said that there are significant gender differences in Afghanistan, South Sudan, and Yemen in terms of access to education, especially for girls.
In the report of this organization, it is also stated that due to all the challenges, in some cases girls surpass boys in learning capacity.
In this report, Gordon Brown, the United Nations Special Envoy for Global Education and Head of the High Level Leadership Group (ECW) called the ban on girls’ education in Afghanistan “unwise”.
Meanwhile, Kausar, a ninth grade student, and Bahar, an eleventh grade student at a school in Afghanistan, say that they are “disappointed” due to being deprived of education and their future is unknown.
The report of “Education Can’t Wait” fund states that supporting girls’ education through positive action for female teachers in Afghanistan faces a serious challenge, and according to reports, the participation rate of female teachers in Afghanistan’s Multi-Year Resilient Education Program has decreased by 9%.
The multi-year training program of Afghanistan Resilience with a budget of about 50 million dollars from UNICEF is implemented in nine provinces of Afghanistan.
However, it has been 720 days since the Taliban closed the gates of schools to girls above the sixth grade.
Also, banning girls and women from going to universities, working in many government offices and all national and international non-governmental offices, and even going to recreation centers, sports grounds, traveling without Muharram and compulsory hijab are other things that women and girls in Afghanistan are under the control of the group.
