1117 days since the Taliban banned teenage girls from school. Women are also banned from singing in public and their voices are not allowed to be heard outside the house. #LetAfghanGirlsLearn

“Bread, Work, and Liberty”—the rallying cry of Afghan women—has just been transformed into a powerful anthem by Afghanistan’s young artists, Elaha and Sonita.

Let Afghan Girls Learn 🇦🇫 In the 21st century, while the world is thinking about how to live in Mars, in a country called Afghanistan, girls have been denied access to university and school by the Taliban for 1,1120 days. Don’t forget Afghan girls banned from education!

Family court judges use victim-blaming language in domestic abuse cases finds AI project. Research by herEthical AI shows attitude of disbelief & ‘stereotypical views’ about survivors. Delighted that Right to Equality & @riverlightorg are working on this. theguardian.com/law/2024/oct/0…

1118 days since the Taliban banned teenage girls from school. According to UN figures, 80% of school-aged Afghan girls and young women are out of school. Nearly 30% of girls in Afghanistan have never entered primary education. #LetAfghanGirlsLearn

The DWP released statistics showing that fraud in the disability benefits system is a 'non-issue', so why the plans to spy on Disabled people’s bank accounts? Because the wealthy tax avoiders have political influence, while we do not. opendemocracy.net/en/plans-to-sp…

In under 4 years, the Taliban has systematically erased Afghan women from society. Just yesterday, Afghan women were banned from hearing one another’s voices. For Afghan women, this 2010 photograph by Boushra Almutawakel is not an abstract commentary, it is a lived reality.

1140 days since the Taliban banned teenage girls from school. 680 days since the Taliban banned women from going to university. Women and girls continue to be shut out of most areas of public life in Afghanistan. #LetAfghanGirlsLearn

I do not understand why what is going on in Afghanistan is not bigger news. Women now banned from “hearing other women’s voices” independent.co.uk/asia/south-asi…

The Taliban’s latest edict is horrifying. Banning Afghan women and girls from hearing each other’s voices in public is a deliberate effort to erase them from society.    We condemn the Taliban’s appalling assault on the rights of women and girls.
