Excited to share a series about early grade reading that I did some work on at @WBG_Education - contains crucial evidence-aligned research on reading as well as actionable steps that practitioners can take to ensure every child learns how to read (sharing the reports in a 🧵)

HUNDREDS of Pashtun children marched in support of the Chaman sit-in, which has persisted for nearly a month against the Pakistani govt's visa & passport policies for crossing the Pak-Afghan border . The resilient voices of PASHTUN must not ignored.

I am exhausted. We are all exhausted. I genuinely can’t comprehend how this genocide enters its 38th day. 38 days of bloodshed, massacring more than 11000 people, half of them are children. 38 days of fabrications and lies, 38 days of inhumanity. 38 days that made me view this world so differently. 38 days of starvation, 38 days without electricity and water. 38 days with constant bombardment. 38 days with barely any sleep. 38 days of destruction. 38 days of absolute terror. 38 days of genocide. We will not forgive. We will not forget.

Save the Children has warned that child labour in Afghanistan as well as their involvement in smuggling are likely to increase due to poverty as most returning families were among the poorest migrants in Pakistan.

A school full of refugees in Beit Lahia was bombed this morning, Gaza

Today, his 16-year-old son was forcefully deported. Authorities initially promised @ItsNotaRant & @AuratMarchKHI that the kid would be released, but to their dismay, he was eventually sent alone to Chaman border. Comrades tried to stop the bus, but the driver was told to overrun

I was interviewing his father who spent three decades in Karachi Pakistan, during it he suddenly started crying, seeing his father's condition his son also couldn't resist to stop his tears.

Sharing it for those who are saying the eviction of Afghan refugees isn’t forcible.

[Aurat March - عورت مارچ @AuratMarchKHI]

Civil society members visited a detention center in KHI. To their utmost horror, not only Pashtun & Afghan adults but also KIDS were being picked up by the police & thrown in there w/o their parents knowing.
"They don't have their CNIC" said Sindh Police — which kids ever do?!

“At a time when the Taliban government has banned education beyond grade 6 for girls, with economic sanctions and an infrastructure devastated by the ‘war on terror’, and the recent earthquakes in Herat, deporting people who came to our country to seek refuge is deplorable.”

She is returning back with family to Afghanistan.

Is it your school bag?
She: Yes
You were studying?
She: Yes. Grade-1 Peshawar school
You will study in Afghanistan?
She: I have no idea what will happen.

The deportation of Afghan refugees is a humanitarian and political issue. Linking them to crime is purely a propaganda tool, rooted in racism and xenophobia. Learn how through our myth-busting post below:

I’m constantly in awe of more and more Palestinians refusing misleading framings from mainstream media. This @Yaraeid_ interview on Sky News is an absolute must-see.

Joyland is @SaimSadiq14’s labor of love. It’s Pakistan’s story, for Pakistanis. Its humor, its sensibility - nothing about it panders to a western audience, the intellectual elite, or the desi diaspora. Pakistanis in Pakistan deserve to watch it #ReleaseJoyland

Today at the Lahore Press Club trans and khawjasira activists dispelled propaganda and disinformation about the Transgender Persons (Protection of Riqhts) Act, 2O18.
Here is Neeli Rana urging everyone to read the Act instead of false propaganda.

📚When children were asked questions orally, they are 3 times as likely to answer them correctly as when we give them the questions printed on paper. In short, they struggle to unstick the print from the page.
