Millions of Afghan girls have not only been cut off from formal schooling, but also from the foundational skills—most notably, English language proficiency– that enable access to broader opportunities.
Afghanistan ranks among the lowest-scoring countries in English proficiency globally (EF EPI, 2024). In today's globalized world, English serves as a gateway to online education platforms, remote learning programs, scholarships, and digital resources. Without it, Afghan girls are effectively locked out of many of the few remaining educational pathways still accessible to them.
