Pathways to Education

Building bridges to success through education, collaboration and supporting women and girls in Afghanistan

[Afghans for Progressive Thinking (APT) @APTYouth]

Congratulations to our Executive Director, @AjmalRMR, on being recognized in Leadership & Legacy: Celebrating South Asian Champions.

We extend our sincere thanks to SACAC and @UWGreaterTO for recognizing impactful leadership & community service.

More than 120,000 students are expected to sit for this year’s Kankor exam. Yet for the fifth consecutive year, Afghan girls remain excluded from secondary education.

It has been 1,720 days since the Taliban banned Afghan girls from attending secondary school.

Education is a right, not a privilege. Every Afghan girl deserves the opportunity to learn, grow, and pursue her dreams.

Take some time to watch the videos and read the writings of Afghan girls and young women who are sharing their powerful stories through poetry, letters, journals, and storytelling.

Afghan girls are reclaiming their voices, reflecting on resilience and hope, and documenting experiences that should never be erased or forgotten.

Even in difficult times, their words continue to inspire courage, healing, and connection.

Afghanistan: Ongoing restrictions on girls' education and women’s employment could have a devastating impact on the country’s future.

@UNICEF warns more than 25,000 female teachers and healthcare workers could be lost as a result of the restrictions.

Educators working with marginalized youth: your role is critical. Education is a human right. Its future must be shaped by those who are too often left behind.

We are calling on educators on the front lines to help ensure that the voices of marginalized and vulnerable youth shape what education should look like. Your experience helps give a voice to youth who have been underrepresented for far too long.

🗣️ Together, we can ensure no voice is left behind.

Girls in Afghanistan are being silenced.

No school.
No public life.
No future.

Without a free press, their stories remain hidden.

On #WorldPressFreedomDay, journalism is about amplifying voices denied one.

Several young Afghan women have secured scholarships in Germany, Turkey, Canada, and France. Their tuition and living costs are covered, but they still need help paying for visas and travel. They are preparing for these next steps and are seeking support.

At a time when many young people are being excluded from education, their voices matter more than ever.

I am joining this global consultation to share perspectives and help shape what comes next.

Today, on World Art Day, we celebrate the creativity and resilience of girls who continue to express themselves through art, even in the most challenging circumstances.

Their artwork tells stories of hope, strength, and dreams that refuse to fade.

If you are connected to an art organization or a space where their work can be shared or supported, or if you can support their growth through mentorship or learning opportunities, please DM us or contact [email protected].
