Women’s Education in Afghanistan -Women’s Education in Afghanistan : Disparities in Education Under the Taliban affecting Women’s Capabilities Development

The endless wars and political turmoil in Afghanistan has left the country teetering on the brink of a collapse. Resultantly, women and other marginalized sections of society are particularly worse off. Discrimination against women's education, under the current regime, is profoundly common. Restricting women's access to education via distinct barriers, social, political, and physical, is widespread with adverse ramifications for the country's human rights. Women's education can help transform the Afghan society and ensure the state's survival as a modern nation-state. Women's education can help with the capabilities development of Afghan women, which in turn can enable them to play their part in the country's development.
