Five years ago today, thousands of Afghan girls lost access to their classrooms.
At LEARN, we believe education cannot wait. We continue to create safe spaces where girls can learn, grow, and keep their dreams alive.
Five years later, we are still here. And so are they.
Today marks five years since secondary schools were closed to Afghan girls above Grade 6.
Five years without classrooms, teachers, and the simple right to learn.
Yet Afghan girls continue to learn, dream, and hope.
Five years is too long. Afghan girls deserve to be in school.

The Afghan girls who were in class when the Taliban banned their education are in their 20s now. No one has been held to account.
Teachers like these refused to abandon them. Most lost their own careers — dismissed from their schools, then shut out of nearly all jobs. Through secret schools and digital platforms, they continue teaching anyway, keeping connection and hope alive for girls.
Working with partners like @LEARNAfg, Malala Fund is funding alternative education for Afghan girls today while pushing to codify gender apartheid as a crime against humanity, so that no regime can strip girls of their rights without consequence, anywhere.
We cannot accept another five years without girls’ education.
