The men resumed their studies in Afghanistan this Monday after long vacation winter, but students still cannot access University by decision of the Taliban government, which marginalizes women.

Ban university research This is one of the many restrictions the Taliban have placed on women since they returned to power in August 2021.

Discrimination against women in Afghanistan it was condemned all over the world, including in Muslim countries.

“It hurts to see that men are studying at the university, and we are sitting at home,” she complained. Rahela22 years old, central province Gaur.

“This is discrimination against women because Islam allows us to have higher education. No one should interfere with our studies, ”she said.

He taliban government introduced the ban after accusing female students of ignoring a strict dress code and requiring them to bring a male relative to campus.

Previously, most universities had gender-segregated entrances and classrooms, and women were only allowed to attend classes with female professors or seniors.

Ban is temporary, Taliban say

Some Taliban authorities they said the women’s ban was temporary, but they did not reopen girls’ high schools, which had been closed for over a year.

They came up with a variety of excuses for the closure, from lack of funds to time to bring the educational program in line with Islamic principles.

The reality, according to the Taliban authorities, is that ultra-conservative clerics who advise the country’s supreme leader, Hibatulla Akhundzadadeeply skeptical about modern education for women.

Since coming to power, the Taliban have excluded women from public life, depriving them of access to many government jobs or less remuneration for staying at home.

They are prohibited from going to parks, fairs, gyms and public baths, and must be closed in public places.

Human rights groups condemned the restrictions, with the UN calling them “gender apartheid”.

The international community pushed for women’s right to education in negotiations for aid and recognition of the Taliban regime.

So far, no country has recognized the Taliban government.
