Segregation and dress code – strict new rules for studying Afghan women
The Taliban have declared that all universities will be segregated by gender and strict dress codes will be enforced, as the militant group increases their control over Afghanistan
It comes as the country’s new education minister confirms that women will be able to continue studying.
The Taliban also says they wont prevent women from seeking employment… but since taking control of the country they have asked women to stay away from their workplaces until further notice.
This all follows the militant group raising their white flag over Kabul’s presidential palace on Sunday, signalling the official commencement of their reign.
The latest university segregation policy is a significant change from the way Afghanistan was before the Taliban took over.
Prior to August, universities were co-educational, with men and women studying side by side, and there were no dress codes.
Meanwhile, the education minister is standing firm on the decision, saying “we have no problems in ending the mixed-education system, the people are Muslims and they will accept it.”
