Abstract
Our project is based upon and surrounds the issue of educational inequity within Afghanistan, primarily towards women. With the current political climate in Afghanistan influenced by the Taliban and highly discriminatory towards women, educational inequity has been a prominent issue within Afghanistan in recent years. With over 3.7 million children in Afghanistan not in school, and over 60 percent of those children being young girls, we wish to emphasize this issue and spread information regarding it to aid in resolving this tremendous social issue. Thus, we plan upon embarking on an impactful social media campaign in which we intend to reach out to other groups with a similar goal, as well as inform the public, and create impactful change by enabling individuals to aid in combatting this issue to promote educational rights for all children in Afghanistan.
