Afghan varsity sees first graduates in women?s studies
Kabul University is the country’s first higher education institute to offer a degree focused on gender and women’s issues, according to the United Nations Development Programme and university officials. Feminist theories, media, civil society and conflict resolution were among the largely women-focused topics covered in the two-year Master’s course, funded by South Korea and run by the UNDP. Offering such a degree would have been unthinkable during the Taliban’s repressive 1996-2001 Islamist regime, when female issues were taboo and women were largely confined to their homes and banned from education. While protection of women’s rights has improved since a US-led invasion toppled the Taliban, they remain second-class citizens in the male-dominated country. Among the 22 graduates were seven men, including Mujtaba Arefi. "This is the beginning of a change", Arefi told AFP as he waited to receive his certificate. أكثر... ??????? ??????: Afghan varsity sees first graduates in women?s studies || ??????: ahlam1399 || ??????: اسم منتداك
