Amidst a dire humanitarian crisis, Afghanistan finds itself at a crossroads as the international community rallies to address the pressing issue of women’s education. The recent ban on women’s education has sparked global outrage, leading to a critical funding gap for aid to more than 21 million people in the nation. The United Nations (UN), as a crucial advocate for women’s rights and education, is at the forefront of this battle against adversity.

The Funding Challenge

With an urgent plea for $3.2 billion in aid to support nearly half of Afghanistan’s population, the UN’s efforts have fallen short, receiving less than 25% of the required funding by the halfway mark of the year.
