could amount to a crime against humanity. the hardliners have cut back on freedoms, including the right to attain to schools and universities. the un says the policy aims to a race, women from public life, back to class after the winter break. and a chance to catch up with friends after time away. but the only sign of women at this private university in kabul is on the walls. and the post is encouraging female students to wear ahead job a remind to have life here before the taliban band, women from higher education late last year. if you are a mom, we didn't have any issue with our sisters having segregated classes from us. i'll point was that even if they had to study alone, we were happy about it. last year we were segregated and they were studying who were happy about it. there was no issue with it. that's what i mean. yeah. the

ruling in december was met with protest submit wide spread, the label outrage with many of those taking to the streets. young women now being denied access the higher education such as my 2nd work. well, my personal view is that if girls are not educated, half of the society will be paralyzed. so half of the society needs to come out of this paralysis. the more progress you have in the society, the better goals are also human or whatever they love, all like whatever they want to become in the future, they must continue and they must study in schools or at university wide from room. her mom can jo mccormick, arthur, that is why the, the taliban says the decision to bar women from university classrooms was made because dress codes and gender based religious restrictions were being ignored. the country is now among the most restrictive in the world for women's education. with a similar band still in place for girls at secondary school, the united nation says the direct is could create a loss generation,

claiming every one has the right to an education or mud himself. he is the founding director of the organization for policy research and development studies based in afghanistan. welcome to they w, your think tank ames a, giving women's voices a platform in policy discourse. hattie and mike, these voices heard well, one of the key initiatives that we have right now is a digital platform that allows us to survey thousands of women across the country on key effect, a key issues that are affecting them. and then get those outputs into the hands of policy makers about here in new york, the sidelines of the c s. w meetings, as well as another key capitals that are engaged in afghanistan, both in terms of humanitarian work. and in terms of, of discussions around political engagement, met him,

un says the taliban statement of women and girls in afghanistan, my amount to a crime against humanity is strong words. but will there be any real consequences for the television? well, to be very clear, what we're seeing right now from the international community is really not a concerted effort there for actual communities, very much divided among themselves in terms of what those key red lines are, what can or cannot be acceptable. so i don't see that there is an international consensus on consequences towards the taliban. there are about 10 countries that are officially given. the embassies, i've got some embassies over to the taliban. 2 of those members are members of the us to curity council being russia and china. so it's quite difficult to say, but of course there are consequences and there should be. and some of those

consequences could be the fact that right now, there are serious are 1st under play to look at the situation. and i've got nathan as a gender apartheid and to be able to frame it legally as that into, in front of the international criminal court. of course, there's also the case of international recognition to the taliban, which i don't think that but the international community, even those who have given embassies over, will be doing anytime soon. in light of the edicts that the taliban have been issuing over time again. use the phrase considered, they said, what can the international community do? what would or concern a concerted effort look like? while for one to come on, come onto the same page when it comes to a, what are their leverages and be, what are their red lines? and make a principled effort to stick to those what we have seen in the last year and

a half is the international community continuing to lower the standards to which the taliban have to measure up to or uphold. we've seen right now that the international that the taliban have have violated the very principles of humanitarian aid by not allowing women to work in i n g o as well as other agencies to deliver important aid to a women and women. how women had it household now about the violation of humanitarian principles of, of impartiality. yet the entire community continues to, to provide humanitarian aid without any parameters or without any measures. so it needs to do that needs to come on to the same page. and it nice to look at the sanctions against the taliban hard. and those sanctions place more. tell about members on the travel bands that they have already in place and try to try to

tighten up those those areas to show the pressure, muddy m, stuffy from the organization for policy, research and development studies. thank you so much for your time. that is all the needs from our business is next with christy plug in and how chinese telecom for what? escaping its leadership all in the family. don't forget this more on the website, the d, w dot com any time you need it. you can also check it out social media channels to handle the need. for instance, twitter is at d. w use. i'm anthony howell, caesar ah ah, in the monroe.
