The Taliban has announced that it will soon reopen girls’ schools in Afghanistan, but women’s rights activists remain skeptical of the move.
A source from the Taliban’s Ministry of Education told to Kauser News Agency that the changes would happen “soon,” and that all girls would be allowed to attend school. However, the source also acknowledged that “most Afghan citizens and women’s rights activists don’t want the Taliban to open the girl’s school and try to interfere in the education system.”
The Taliban’s decision to reopen girls’ schools is a significant change from its previous stance when it banned girls from attending school altogether. However, it remains to be seen whether the Taliban will follow through on its promise.
Women’s rights activists have expressed concern that the Taliban will not allow girls to attend school beyond a certain grade level, or that they will impose other restrictions on girls’ education. They are also worried that the Taliban will interfere with the curriculum and teaching methods in girls’ schools.
The Taliban has said that it will respect the rights of women and girls, but its actions have not always matched its words. In the past, the Taliban has been accused of human rights abuses, including the oppression of women and girls.
It remains to be seen whether the Taliban will truly allow girls to attend school and receive a quality education. The international community will be watching closely to see how the Taliban implements its new policy on girls’ education.
