Taliban's Educational Overhaul: Aiming for an Extremist Agenda

Islamabad — After completely eradicating women from the education sector, the Taliban is now intensifying its efforts to reshape the Afghan educational landscape according to its extremist ideology. The regime has systematically purged academics who do not align with its rigid beliefs, resulting in a significant brain drain as many educators flee the country.

In a bid to enforce a strict interpretation of Islamic teachings, the Taliban has implemented a curriculum that omits critical thinking and promotes a narrow worldview. This shift not only affects higher education but also trickles down to primary and secondary schools, where children are now being taught to adhere to the Taliban’s ideological framework.

Critics argue that this transformation threatens the future of Afghan youth, depriving them of a well-rounded education and the opportunity to engage with global ideas. The international community watches with concern as the Taliban's educational policies solidify, potentially leading to a generation of students disconnected from modern knowledge and critical inquiry.
