Turkish Organization Opened Two Studios in Afghanistan for Offering Education

  • The Turkish Cooperation and Coordination Agency (TiKA) has established two new studios which have been established to fulfill the demands of remote education, as stated by Khaama Press. According to Yeni Safak, a Turkish daily newspaper, the two new studios at Mirac TV, an organization that offers educational and cultural programs throughout Afghanistan, have been constructed in light of the country's confined access to higher education and a large portion of the population's lack of literacy.

    The initiative focused on rural Afghanistan and uses Mirac TV programming to support people's access to education. The project's launching was represented by Ali Akber Zerrin, the Director of the Afghan Education Institute, Arafat Deniz, the TiKA Herat coordinator, Habibullah Ferahi, and Veli Ah Behre, the Manager of the Abdulvahid Behre Cultural Centre. TiKA Herat Coordinator Deniz emphasized at the ceremony that education continues to be of the utmost importance in the nation and that TIKA's commitment to enabling settings for remote education resolves the current problems in the field of education, Khaama Press stated.

    Girls and women were restricted from entering secondary education in the entire country from August 2021. But since last December, de facto officials have stopped women from registering in institutions. The Taliban previously placed an order for girls to remain at home on September 18, the day high schools in Afghanistan paved to boys. Since the Taliban's fierce rule in Afghanistan might shortly come to a conclusion in August, some human rights and education groups have lately urged foreign leaders to apply diplomatic influence on the Taliban to resume operating secondary educational institutions for girls in the war-ravaged country.

    The letter requested world leaders, regional allies, and international organizations to undertake decisive action to uphold their commitments to advance and defend the rights of Afghan girls, specifically the right to education, which was deprived of them shortly after the Taliban-led Afghan government outlawed the education of girls in grades 6 and above.
