In a recent meeting with Taliban officials, Hanan Hassan Balkhi, a representative of the World Health Organization (WHO), emphasized the importance of educating women and supporting their rights.
Balkhi, who visited Kabul this week, emphasized the significant impact of women’s education on the health and well-being of the general society. He expressed these views on the X network and emphasized the need for a national strategy to reduce drug consumption.
According to the United Nations, approximately 10 percent of the total population of Afghanistan, or about 3.5 million people, are drug addicts.
In addition, Balkhi announced that WHO is committed to cooperating with Afghanistan’s civil society in various humanitarian projects.
However, despite international emphasis on the importance of women’s education, the Taliban still resist opening schools to women and discussing the issue of women’s and girls’ education in Afghanistan.
