Women Education issue: OIC to send ‘Team of Ulama’ to Afghanistan to discuss with Taliban

| @indiablooms | Jan 13, 2023, at 11:39 pm

Kabul: The Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) is planning to send a delegation to Afghanistan to discuss the issues ranging from  women’s rights to education and employment with the Taliban interim government.

The Taliban captured Afghanistan in 2021.

The decision was taken at an extraordinary meeting of the OIC in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, initiated by Türkiye – aimed at highlighting the concerns over the recent restrictions imposed by the Taliban government barring women from university education and employment at non-governmental aid organizations, Khaama Press reported.

OIC Secretary-General Hissein Brahim Taha told the meeting that the delegation would focus on the Taliban government’s measures against the basic rights of education, employment, and social justice of Afghan girls and women as these rights constitute a top priority for the Islamic world.

Taliban introduced various strict measures against women since coming to power in Afghanistan.
