On the International Day of Girls in ICT, the United Nations laments Afghanistan’s transformation into a graveyard of girls’ hopes as the world strives for greater female participation in this field.
The UN Women’s section stands with Afghan girls, emphasizing their resilience despite educational bans.
Despite the prohibition, The UN underscores its solidarity with Afghan girls in their fight for education rights.
Every year, the International Day of Girls in ICT, celebrated on the fourth Thursday of April, commemorates women’s leadership, participation, and empowerment in this sector.
With its renewed control over Afghanistan, the Taliban has barred girls above the sixth grade from schools and closed universities to them. Despite domestic and international condemnation, the Taliban persists in enforcing the ban on girls’ education.
Since the Taliban seized power in Afghanistan, they have implemented strict measures, including banning girls from attending school beyond the sixth grade and attending university. Additionally, the Taliban have prohibited women from working, further worsening the situation for women’s rights and human rights in the country.
