How has women's education improved?

Are women allowed to be educated? Why or why not?

Though Afghanistan’s girls are still fighting for equal access to education and the right to learn, an estimated 2.5 million girls are now officially enrolled in schools.

According to the law, women are allowed to go to school and get an education. However, education for girls is frowned upon and even despised. Many Afghan families will only permit their daughters to attend all-girls schools close to home and few such schools exist. Other families believe it is unnecessary for girls to be educated.

Are more teachers men or women?

What are people doing to try and increase women's education?

Shabana Basij-Rasikh co-founded her home country's first boarding school for girls in 2008, the nonprofit School of Leadership, Afghanistan (SOLA) in Kabul, and it offers college prep courses and helps graduates get into universities around the world.

How are women educated?

Most of the girls go to school for about 3-5 years, most don't make it to middle school, and many teens are married off and can't continue school.

Does being educated allow women jobs outside the house?

It all depends on the situation. Like if the husband allows his wife/wives out of the house and to get a job.
