It is three years since the Taliban retook Kabul. Soon girls over 11 were no longer able to get an education. 
This film shares the story of how Dars - the BBC's education programme - was created to help children excluded from school: https://t.co/Q9CiPdUpoA

We're so proud that the wonderful @davidlowemusic2 also made the title music for #BBCDars - the World Service's education programme for Afghan children barred from school. He captured the tone of our programme perfectly. Check it out here: https://t.co/eO9HEekTyw

25 years ago, I composed the @BBCNews Theme Tune, which is broadcast around the world everyday. From the precise beeps of time to the powerful bass and dramatic drums for the headlines. This how I did it…

چند روز قبل برنامه #درس‌بی‌بی‌سی یکساله شد.

در فصل سوم تلاش می‌کنیم تا #درس برای دخترانی که در افغانستان از حق آموزش محرومند بیش از قبل مفید تمام شود.

A happy story + an appeal: Reunited last night at the British Library... The last time I saw @Shazia_Haya she was in a hotel in Paddington just a couple of weeks after fleeing Kabul in the tragic shambles that was the August 2021 US withdrawal and the Taliban takeover 1/x
