More than 900 days have now passed since girls over 12 were first banned from education. According to Unicef, the ban has now impacted some 1.4m Afghan girls.
The future for many of Afghanistan’s girls is “bleak”, warns Samira Hamidi, Amnesty International’s regional campaigner - pointing to the fact young girls are continuing to be married off when they reach puberty, and are further endangered by the Taliban’s rollback of laws designed to protect women in abusive marriages.
After WWII the Hungarians were pretty much stuck in the eastern block as human shields against a NATO attack against the USSR. So they were not provided with much rebuilding as the West did for other countries. They picked up pencil and paper and are now known as a country that produces mathematical and scientific geniuses. e.g. Paul Erdős Erdős published around 1,500 mathematical papers during his lifetime, a figure that remains unsurpassed
My Point, for ding-dongs: Afghans , Palestinians or any poor country should encourage math skills because the raw infrastructure is pencil and paper + a mind. Most minds can do math if they try.
Wow, so impressive.
Sucks that mathematics can’t save you from electing a populist idiot.
so you offer nothing, that’s your answer?
