Show Notes
In Afghanistan, women and girls have been banned from schools and universities – but underground networks have sprung up to maintain their education. This week on Bunker Global, Chris Jones is joined by Pashtana Durrani, educator and founder of LEARN Afghan and winner of a 2023 Global Citizen Award, to discuss the schools that defy Taliban rule and educate girls across the country.
- "Our future was stolen. Our present is stolen. We are the victims of a political agenda.”
- "Despite everything, I’m a hopeless optimist when it comes to Afghanistan.“
