UNAMA Compromises with Taliban on Religious Schools; Kofi Warns Against Substituting Them for Formal Education

UNAMA Compromises with Taliban on Religious Schools; Kofi Warns Against Substituting Them for Formal Education

RASC News Agency: Fawzia Kofi, a former member of the House of Representatives, recently responded to remarks made by the head of UNAMA regarding the education of girls in religious schools. She emphasized that religious schools cannot be deemed an official “alternative education.” Mrs. Kofi shared her insights on social media on Saturday, December 23rd, raising questions about the extent to which UNAMA ensures adherence to the UN Charter in Afghanistan.

Expanding on her message, Mrs. Kofi voiced her concerns about potential clandestine activities, asking, “What is transpiring behind our backs once again?” Her comments underscore the imperative for transparency and accountability in addressing girls’ education in Afghanistan.

Heather Barr, the head of the Women’s Division at Human Rights Watch, has also voiced apprehensions regarding UNAMA’s approach to the education of Afghanistani girls. She asserted that religious schools are an inadequate substitute for public schools and cautioned against jeopardizing the future of a nation whose children are exposed solely to extremist teachings.

Reports indicate an increasing enrollment of girls in religious schools, a fact confirmed by Roza Otunbayeva, the UN Secretary-General’s special representative in Afghanistan. However, it is crucial to acknowledge earlier reports indicating the Taliban’s efforts to transform schools into religious institutions and propagate their extremist ideology through education. These developments raise substantial concerns regarding the quality and inclusivity of education in Afghanistan.
