activist groups. the taliban is yet to respond officially. but sources of told out to theera the taliban is divided between reformists, many of whom engage with the international community during talks and go home and a more conservative faction. one analyst says the decisions are made by small minority. i think that the vision is not coming up on what maple she acted these with the u. s. and daughter and or her doctor that they are not against women educators. there's only 5 people who are managing the whole team. these are the hard liners of young lasted to be covered, was the destitution of the hi mother. the year before the taliban took power in afghanistan, its 1st deputy leader surgery in the ha, connie wrote an article published in the new york times. it said women's rights, the education would be protected, a promise that has been rolled back, but the u. s. also failed on its promised to use economic tools as leverage to

10:38 am
stop for the foreseeable future. laura con al jazeera ah, let's bring in august. so how does a psycho social counselor in the region afghanistan, committee, and away the law here, founder of the letter of gun goes, learn campaign, welcome to the program. so ha, give us a sense of what this means for women and female students in the hall. 40 yeah, because i study of car will come to hot on the cross. i've gone is done. now of course i tell yesterday there was somehow some hopes and heart of each girl unlimited in afghan hassan. but unfortunately, after the day, i mean yesterday when they issued that you cannot go to courses, universities,
10:39 am
mantresa. so they feel like it's in don't to work for them because when you cannot go outside with you and you cannot go, do you get yourself if you do not have any kind of freedom? so obviously they have their worst ever feeling and their lives. i mean we oh, by the law the, the taliban says they took over 6 is 16 months ago. they've been saying that they will definitely look forward to guarantee sir, why it's for good particular when it comes to education, now they're back tracking every single commitment. they made, why do you think it happened? i sometimes feel like they have this bucket list of all the promises they need to break and there is a high that they achieve every time they break a promise or, i mean people were desperately trying to believe that this wasn't the thought upon of the ninety's he have to understand some of the things that they're doing are worse than what they did in the ninety's. and the fact that it's been
10:40 am
a campaign of misleading the population. they got girls to give the year 12 exams just 2 weeks ago, giving them the false hope that maybe universities were see if maybe high schools were going to open soon. and then we have a directive about the universities. today. we have a directive from the ministry of education stating that every provinces to ensure that girls are not allowed in schools beyond grade 6. this is for private institutes for public institutes for institutions that are even teaching languages or courses. so it looks like the pilot bottom really want to implement this band and they're leaving us no room to go with alternatives. there were alternatives of hidden schools. there were alternatives of online schooling. but with this crackdown with how they've today actually rained in the schools to make sure that no were there and just shows that it's getting worse. about 2 months ago. so had i
10:41 am
was in afghanistan and have been to some of those schools, particularly in missouri city and cobbled, i've met some of the female suitors, absolutely smart, passionate looking forward to continue their studies, one of them. so remember, she told me she wants to become a national and she wants to go to the united states of america for her past graduate studies. now with this decision, is there any backup plan for them? i can engineers step in to provide them with some sort of an alternative education . otherwise it's just going to be a massive disaster for them away to allow us to sit there after this decision did they have made never close all courses. all homeless schools are the mother us, us. so it's like that now we do not have any alternative. oh, except the cbc classes. it's eunice, her and shit. if her unison, but i'm not sure that even those will be able to be open. of course, sir,
10:42 am
before that to be her option to teach girls at our homes or online or some other places. but at this moment, it's almost 48 hours and that they have announced business session. and in this 48 hours, i have received more than 50 calls from my students, and derek in italy asking, what should we do? we are not allowed to do anything at all. so are we going to stay at home? are we going to get to mary and just spread or raise a child? is this our future? and obviously what this condition and if they are not going to change and if they are having the same issue or issues with girls education. so i suppose that is gonna be a very tough time, not just for women, but for all afghans on all of this lee, it consequences will not to be the same. dutch did think so. okay, are away the law is sit an indication though we have a divide,
10:43 am
whether the taliban leadership somehow are in favor of those who are not in favor of the so called reformers and the old school or is it because we know that the taliban come from the predominantly passion areas, basically in the south where people are reluctant to son that goes to school where people are very conservative and they want to implement, implement that tradition across the country. you have to remember that bacteria, which is a by stone province, was the 1st province stage demonstrations against the decision to close down the schools. so i think that this is a misplaced generalization to think that a student in general are not in favor of education. the argument off the target bond being 2 flags or 2 sides on education. i mean, even if they are what different had that made. there were months before we reached this university baton and less conservative or pro education parted by had all the
10:44 am
time in the world and all the political power to do something about it yet they were passive. they met did happen, know that the degree for closing down universities isn't an individual department. it's not an individual ministry. it was find it cleared by the cabinet. the cabinet that includes these moderates as well. so somehow we've been failed by everyone. even the bulls who promised us that you cation, even those whose doctors, till date what universities and schools around the world, yet they said in the cabinet, and they sign on a document that says of one girls don't deserve to go to university. if it's not hypocrisy, i don't know what is so heart. i mean if you look at the past few months where the taliban made those decisions about a female suitors access to school that embossed when 222, this other girls were bad from schools. and then in may the supremely that how
10:45 am
about the law? honda said that it's about time for women to stay at home. that particular announcement by the taliban. do you think it is just going to be the policy, the doctrine of the target been for as long as it takes in afghanistan? actually until he turned off march, when day stopped, girls from going to school did not tell us. it did not give any issue, did you? you shouldn't be coming to school, but when girls went there, they were told to go back home. so simply, it means they want to traumatize all she mo afghans. this is dear, only the only reason they are doing it else, why are they always giving us hope? but then day break it. they tell us that ok, come to school, come to university, then suddenly debt is not is lost. and of course, as you said, that humans have gone when he said that women should be
10:46 am
a staying at home. of course, if woman is not educated, if women are not allowed to be educated, we are gonna have a very dark afghanistan. maybe we will experience a day that there wouldn't be any educated woman. well, there were well not to be it, not to be even one woman was educated and i've got her son and most of my friends and my students since yesterday. they are planning how to leave that garrison. so it's like that even if we had a warrant, some female wanted to stay. now their decision has changed. okay. they want to leave because did you not have any other option? any other alternative? i see your point. the muslim world is expressing deep disappointment over the tile of as order sided ravia, turkey, katara that played a major role in mediating between the taliban and the u. s. r. calling on cabal to reverse the decision. washington is threatening to take tougher action against the
10:47 am
taliban. leaders, itala, mine should expect that decision which is in contravention to the commitments they have made repeatedly and publicly to their own people will carry cos will carry concrete ass for them. they have seriously asked leave data undermined one of their deepest ambitions and other areas where they see progress and that is an improvement betterment of relations with united states and the rest of the world. are we the law? this is what is battling many people who are watching the events unfold enough canister. on one hand, the taliban made it clear that the desperate for international recognition to the looking forward to see financial aid trickle in into the country. and some of the assets which were, which are frozen in the us, central burke bank to be sent back to afghanistan. but that will definitely depend
10:48 am
on whether the afghan got the taliban are willing to install some major reforms. they are giving the world indication today that they are not willing to make any reforms. what kind of impact do you think this will have on the taliban? and on the i've got people. the thought had been through there 20 years of insurgency had become a fluid insurgency, which is a new sci fi to subgroups that are working under one banner. and for one goal, you would expect them to have transformed and gotten over that phase. in the past one and a half years of governance, however, it appears that the hand is not talking to the mouse, not part of the system is talking to the other. and every system takes the decisions it needs to take with stamping from the amir himself, which is why those who are making the promises a aren't making the decisions to be, are passive and don't take a stand on decisions that hurt honest on. busy know that we spend months arguing
10:49 am
over the federal reserve is trying to find a mechanism for it to be released. and now that conversation is going to be pause. we spend month arguing with donors that development aid that emergency was not enough. that conversation is not going to be pause, we spend months asking the. busy world to do need more and do more by a lot of conversations going shop and then the engagement will by who stop. i mean, i do understand the argument where people are thing. ok. sanction them heard them. but how do you heard of toggle button without hurting 35 movie and ones? is there anything that specifically targets the tyler button? because everything you do is going to have very large implications, very bad implications on the worst manager in crisis that is already existed in the one spot. so how the brave woman who took to the streets in august chanting bread work and free to what, what's next for them, do you think that they can still rely on the streets to be able to hope that one
10:50 am
day that will be able to bring about some change ah, honestly speaking today, when i, when i saw a woman who is selling vinnish dribbles and if she stole that you have to stay home or husband is dead. she doesn't have a thumb on there. what will be her future? who will bring bridge for her and off course. currently it is above 20000000 afghans who are having hunger crisis. so brit then what will be the next year for us? it's like we are having more hungry issues. and last, the girls who are coming to homer schools when we were having sessions with them individuals, tech, social sessions, most of them had suicidal, stopped even. i have a student, she is only 13 years old. and once she wanted to come at the site along with her mother, and the reason was that did not have enough break to eat. she said it,
10:51 am
it was easier to try to die from hunger. so britain, if it continues didn't, the situation is getting worse and worse, and finally, yeah, well it, they come to every and williston, the kids. because when you do not have anything to eat, when you do not have a future, when you could not get into cation, everything is but, and you saw the basic human needs. freedom is one of them, answer violence, another one. so if god is taken from you, what will you do with the law do do, do the afghans feel of this particular moment that we have been somehow betrayed by the weld? i mean that we need to give up this, this, this thinking process of always expecting the international community to swoop in and save us. i mean, i understand can only be faced if the up on sticks it. i mean, yes, the odds are against us, but we have to do what we can you have to understand that the prop protests that
10:52 am
have been going on since yesterday the whole camping of all or nothing. which means that either the girls are included or no one goes to school or university, has potential. we're having conversations about how that translates into 2 months later when the winter break ends. what can we do in the form of national mobilization? yes, the international community can compliment such efforts can connect with such thought within, up as fun. but at the end of the day up one is done. solutions have to be organic, have to come from within the country and they to be listen to. so ha, you know that the whole debate about the, his job, the main guardian for a girl, if she is planning to travel for long distance, the access to the public pots in many, many pos for the muslim world, people have moved beyond this debate is no longer something people are grappling with because of major major reforms that we're in to place for, for now, for,
10:53 am
for decades except for many, for some places and of got his son is one of them. do you have the hope that one day this is something that could convince the top leadership of the afghanistan on the need to reform themselves, or at least the own interpretation of islam for women to thrive in afghanistan? actually honestly speaking, as you said, dad severe a, b r 8 year, and so many other islamic countries idea stood against this decision to tell of and took and about the her job. of course we did define what they have, the definition of her job is not the exact definition that islam said on. the other reason that most of the times when it comes to education of the school or universities, they said that we want you to have her jobs. but i would want to say just for your programs, you to word that afghans do not have any issue with her job. it's not only about
10:54 am
her job. if it was only about it, even before our girls dated, they were like, always wearing the clothes get worse so suitable according to the custom we have enough gather. but of course we are living in the 21st century. according to that, if we want to have a better future for a job, for our own people, we have to accept some changes we have to adopt. and we have to understand that in order to let girl grow in order to have a better society for i've got a son, we have to lead girl. if you get do not put more pressure according to the strength like he job. all these are you cannot travel. alarm is quite tough. for example, if girl to brother, he is always like going with her to work with school or she didn't, didn't. when will he work? i as your husband is always going here and there with me,
10:55 am
which you did when will he work? how will be in bed? so it isn't made exact sense yet. where does lamb safe? here are some rules, but of course, according to time, some rules are like changeable and you how you can adopt some changes according to you situation going to left and our way the law. when you look at the situation in afghanistan, the taliban were asked to bring about an intrusive government that didn't happen. there is a huge political divide between the taliban and the society of those. also the issue of the treatment of the hazard, our she, our community, there is an issue of reaching out of the opposition and you are to the mix. this problem with the female. her, her education in afghanistan. could it, could this be assigned by the taliban, or masters by the taliban to the afghan people to the international community there from now on was we have to accept this reality. which of the taliban will have the
10:56 am
ultimate say over whatever they think is the best for the afghan people? yeah. first on huge respect to so her and her view on how yeah, we did expect to have to make compromises. it's just that we didn't expect everything to be taken away. there is this idea of how the pilot on right now are, are there politics seems to be addressed to their own constituencies. and you would expect them to have changed that mindset and realize that now they are responsible for a whole country. so the social contract seems to not have been established or extended . there is also this idea that the constant attempts to course simply implement their vision on the large population has historically proven to fail in our partners on,
10:57 am
in this region as. busy so if they truly want their region to stay and they truly do not want the populations grievances to reach a level where they stand up to them, they will have to listen to the educated use of honest fun. they will have to create a synthesis off these 2 visions into something more sustainable, something that we aren't seeing. it seems that there are indifferent towards the population and they're indifferent towards the world. and all that matters to them is abusing their own hard line ranks. unfortunately, we have to leave the variable, i promise you. so how do we continue to talk about this particular issue hoping about tomorrow is going to be a better day for the gun woman. for hadaway, the lab i had, i really appreciate your insights. looking forward to talking to you in the future . and thank you for watching. you can see the program again any time by visiting our website al jazeera dot com for further discussion. got our facebook page that facebook dot com forward slash ha inside for. you can also join the conversation on
