dc.description.abstract | The educational challenges faced by women in Afghanistan are multifaceted and deeply rooted
in social, cultural, and political factors. These challenges have persisted through historical
contexts, including the Russian invasion in the 1980s and the subsequent Taliban regimes. The
research aims to explore various types of educational challenges that Afghan women faced
during the Taliban government. In that regard, I have to choose between two
successive Taliban regimes the first Taliban regime and the second Taliban regime.
The research technique involves both qualitative and quantitative methodologies, as well as the
Grounded Theory approach. It contains primary data collected through in-depth interviews
with open-ended questions, from 10 individuals from the previous Taliban administration,
including educational leaders, educators, and women. In addition, 10 interviews were
performed with current Taliban regime members who hold a Master of Arts in education.
Secondary data was gathered from academic databases such as Google Scholar, ResearchGate,
and other academic sources, which included reviewing and extracting material from secondary
sources, published research, journals, and articles. Thematic analysis was utilized to find
patterns and insights from the interviews.
According to The findings of the in-depth interviews and grounded theory study results, 90%
of Afghan women suffered cultural and social challenges during the current Taliban
government. Women do not have the right to an education beyond the sixth grade in
Afghanistan, according to the Taliban's new norms and regulations. Also, when the Taliban
took power in Afghanistan, all women experienced multiple challenges, including financial
issues. and excluded all women from their fundamental rights, all Afghan girls have faced
various economic challenges, and they are unable to support their families. Not only that, but
the Taliban also excludes Afghan women from jobs in international organizations, and 90% of
women face a lack of work in the political process. Those girls who have jobs at NGOs or other
national organizations face restrictions and punishment from the Taliban. | en_US |
