On the 1,659th day of the closure of schools for girls above the sixth grade across Afghanistan, the organization "Afghanistan Rights Monitor" has once again called for the lifting of this ban. In a message posted on its X account, the organization stated that the ban on girls' education continues; a ban that has deprived millions of Afghan girls of their right to education and the opportunity to achieve their dreams. Afghanistan Rights Monitor, criticizing the continuation of this situation, has called for advocacy for the education of girls above the sixth grade and emphasized in part of its message: "Raise your voice." Additionally, in another message, the organization stated: "The ban on girls' education in Afghanistan still continues, and Afghanistan is the only country in the world where girls are systematically deprived of education." This comes as, with the start of the educational year 1405, girls above the sixth grade have been denied the continuation of their education for the fifth consecutive year. It should be noted that the current government, after taking control of Afghanistan, has deprived women and girls of education. Furthermore, in its latest restriction, it has closed the doors of medical institutes to girls and women, while the health sector across Afghanistan is facing a shortage of personnel. This action by the current government has resulted in millions of female students being unable to receive an education. In addition, women have been banned from going to sports clubs, restaurants, public baths, being examined by male doctors, traveling without a male guardian, and working in domestic and international NGOs as well as even at UN offices in Afghanistan.

The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) has recently announced that by providing targeted financial packages, it is helping Afghan women and girls expand their businesses. In a post shared on its X (formerly Twitter) account, the organization highlighted the story of a women-led business called “Jasmin Nursery,” which, after receiving a $10,000 grant and a $7,500 loan, has achieved significant growth. This business, based in Balkh province, focuses on producing handicrafts, including headscarves, clothing, bags, and other items. With financial support from the European Union, UNDP has launched a women’s empowerment program that supports small women-owned businesses. The United Nations emphasizes the importance of supporting women’s businesses in Afghanistan at a time when the current government, since taking control of the country, has restricted women and girls from education. As a result, millions of schoolgirls have been deprived of education. In addition, women have been banned from going to gyms, restaurants, public bathhouses, being examined by male doctors, traveling without a male guardian, and working in domestic and international NGOs, as well as even in United Nations offices in Afghanistan.

UNAMA, the United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan, has recently announced that 80% of the victims of mine explosions and unexploded ordnance in Afghanistan are children. In a message posted on its Facebook account on Wednesday, April 2, the organization stated that Afghanistan ranks third in the world for casualties caused by explosive materials. UNAMA further emphasized that nearly 50 people are killed or injured each month as a result of explosions from munitions and mines left over from the war in Afghanistan, with approximately 80% of them being children. The statement noted that almost every day, at least one incident occurs, and there is a high likelihood that the victim will be a child. The UN political office in Afghanistan highlighted that nearly 90% of these incidents are caused by explosions of unexploded munitions and other remnants of war from the past four decades. UNAMA reported that over 1,000 square kilometers of land contaminated with explosive materials have been identified. Approximately 900 educational institutions and more than 200 health centers are located within one kilometer of these contaminated areas. The organization stated that a lack of funding is the biggest obstacle to demining efforts. Additionally, the United Nations has repeatedly called for immediate funding to clear Afghanistan of threats posed by explosive remnants of war.

UN experts have recently stated that the ongoing ban on women and girls in Afghanistan from entering the offices and camps of the organization represents a serious obstacle to the provision of vital services and a blatant violation of women's rights. In a report, the organization noted that since September 2025, the caretaker government has prohibited women and girls, including UN staff, from entering its offices. UN experts emphasized that "the prohibition of women's entry to UN offices is a direct attack on women's rights, including their right to work." They added that the consequences of this ban are immediate and severe, impacting vital assistance, particularly in response to natural disasters and humanitarian operations, with women and girls suffering the most. The organization underscored the need for a united and principled international response and urged all agencies, funds, and programs of the UN operating in Afghanistan to adopt a common stance. Experts have also called on the UN Secretary-General to apply diplomatic pressure on the current government to lift these restrictions as soon as possible. Since taking control of Afghanistan, the current government has deprived women and girls of education. In its latest restriction, it closed the doors of medical institutes to girls and women, while the health sector across Afghanistan faces a shortage of personnel. This action by the current government has resulted in millions of schoolgirls being unable to receive an education. Additionally, women have been banned from going to sports clubs, restaurants, public baths, being examined by male doctors, traveling without a male guardian, working in domestic and international NGOs, and even entering UN offices in Afghanistan.

The United Nations has announced that the human rights crisis in Afghanistan continues, with women and girls still being excluded from public life due to restrictions. In a statement, the organization noted that girls above the sixth grade in Afghanistan are deprived of attending school, and for the second consecutive year, graduation exams in medical fields have been held in November without the presence of women. The report states: "Women who do not adhere to the government-mandated hijab are denied access to public transportation, markets, and public services." Furthermore, it was mentioned that the current government has also barred female United Nations employees from entering the organization's offices and facilities across the country. The UN has reported that books written by women have been removed from the shelves of bookstores and libraries, including university libraries in some provinces, regardless of the subject, content, or nationality of the author. Volker Turk, the UN human rights chief, stated: "The current government has effectively criminalized the presence of women and girls in public life. A country cannot progress without the participation of women." Additionally, the UN has added that since August 2021, the current government has executed at least 12 individuals in public in Afghanistan, and corporal punishments are being carried out weekly in public. This organization has described flogging and executions as violations of the right to life. According to this report, journalists and media personnel continue to face arbitrary detentions and imprisonment due to "disproportionate restrictions on their produced content."

The United Nations in Geneva has stated in response to the closure of schools for girls above the sixth grade in Afghanistan that every girl, without exception, deserves security, opportunity, and hope for education. This organization shared a message from an Afghan girl on its X account, stating that every girl deserves security, opportunity, and hope for education, and that education cannot be delayed. The message read: "Education cannot be postponed for any child." Two days ago, the academic year 1405 began in Afghanistan; however, girls above the sixth grade remain barred from attending school. Since taking control of Afghanistan in 1400, the interim government has prohibited education for girls above the sixth grade. For nearly five years, international organizations and countries have repeatedly called for the restoration of girls' right to education in Afghanistan. The United Nations added that 273 million children worldwide are out of school; a figure that has increased for the seventh consecutive year. According to this organization, since 2015, the trend of keeping children in school globally has slowed down.
