David Heyman, a prominent Scottish actor, has recently announced that members of the interim government of Afghanistan are sending their daughters to the training center of the charity organization “Spirit Aid,” which he financially supports and manages.
The Herald reported, citing this actor, that around 80 male and female students are studying at this educational center.
David Heyman did not specify in which province of Afghanistan this training center is located.
He emphasized, “I have devoted my adult life to working for change through my charity. Through Spirit Aid, I am doing my small part. I still have my small educational center in Afghanistan.”
It is worth noting that the interim government has banned the education of girls above the sixth grade after regaining control of Afghanistan and has also closed the doors of universities and medical institutes to girls and women.
This famous Scottish actor has stated his intention to perform a play about the situation of women in Afghanistan in the future.
He says that Afghan women are no longer considered citizens and cannot laugh or sing in their homes; their education is limited to primary school, and they cannot choose a profession.
David Heyman established the charity “Spirit Aid” in 2001 for humanitarian activities.
According to information published on the organization’s website, they have been operating in Afghanistan since 2002.
The organization stated that it provides health services to deprived and remote communities in northern Afghanistan through mobile clinics.
