En chiffres
The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (Unesco) has stated that since the Taliban's return to power in 2021, approximately 2.4 million Afghan girls have been systematically denied access to secondary education.
Unesco warned that the number of girls denied secondary education has increased by 200,000 in the past year and could reach around 4 million by 2030 if these restrictions continue. Afghanistan remains the only country in the world where girls are not allowed to attend a formal education institution beyond primary school level.
The education system in Afghanistan is facing a critical systemic crisis, with more than half of primary school-age children completely out of school, and over 90% of 10-year-old children unable to read basic texts.
