Unlocking Potential: Education for Afghan Girls Against All Odds

← See all the events
  • LearningPlanet Festival

The United Nations reports that 80 percent of Afghan girls are currently not in school. After over two years of Taliban rule, this affects 2.5 million girls who are denied access to secondary and tertiary education. We’ll confront the urgent question: How can we effectively equip these girls with the knowledge and skills essential for their immediate development and long-term wellbeing? 

With students, educators and institutions actively involved in Afghan girls education, inside and outside the country, we’ll explore fortifying collaborations between advocates for Afghan girls’ education. Now more than ever, education is the key to unlocking their potential.
