Genie to my friends. Senior Producer of Dars, the @BBCWorldService education programme for Afghan children. Previously, @BBC100Women / BBC Next Gen 2022.
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

This is the third year where girls in Afghanistan are barred from secondary school. 'Zainab' is one of the girls who should be starting school this week. Read her story in the link below.
Thanks to @meghamohan @farzanaalia3 and @MariamAmanS
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
Really proud to win this award, but especially to win with @bbc_perasso . Thank you to so many people, including @aaricciardelli for giving us his talent and @ClaireWNews for giving us time and support.
BBC show is a 'lifeline' for Afghan girls, UN says.
So proud to make this programme and of @MariamAmanS . We’re airing Series 2 of Dars now and you can read more about the impact the programme is having below.
