“If there is safety and security, our home country is the best place for us.” Noor* is one of the Afghan women I’ve met who recently returned from Pakistan. Many are barely surviving and tragically, some are marrying their daughters as early as 12 to cope with their poverty. https://t.co/eVVmdMr6zG

Amina, 13 dreams of being a doctor. She knows she needs a degree. “My brother promised to teach me when I complete 6th grade. But even if he does, it’s not enough to make me a doctor." Girls like Amina hope for secondary education. She’s determined despite the rollback of rights https://t.co/u3wwIkECDl

Shikh Mesri School built by @UNHCRAfg and #SFD is much more than bricks and mortar. It’s giving young girls in #Afghanistan a place to hope and dream. Before students studied in tents. Afroz’s parents did not let her go to school. “We’re so happy to have a safe space to study” https://t.co/MEYPEwDSHY

In a school in Jalabad, I met extraordinary Afghan girls. None were shy. They spoke up &told me what they want for their future. Education is at the forefront of their minds. 12 year old Najiba asked that I tell the authorities that all girls deserve to pursue their education. https://t.co/pbXkNeGYi4

The homes @UNHCRAfg is building aren't a temporary solution, they are being built to last. Women and girls in Afghanistan must feel safe. And safety starts with a home. https://t.co/jqYARoBSs0

I am in Kabul #Afghanistan. In the next days, I’ll be hearing from women about their struggles to makes ends meet but also their aspirations. Women are the bedrock of this country. They are vital for the stability of families, communities and Afghanistan’s future prosperity. https://t.co/EIpw2SE9Oo

About to land in Kabul #Afghanistan. Stunning scenery from the sky. Looking forward to meet our dedicated UNHCR colleagues and learning more about the country and the humanitarian needs of the people. https://t.co/EPnN4aXxId
