Mohammad Asif Nang, the former deputy minister of education in Afghanistan, has put forward a proposal to the Islamic Emirate regarding the country’s educational system.
In his proposal, Nang highlights the ongoing delay in girls’ education, describing it as a serious threat to Afghanistan’s future. He warns that if this ban continues for another two to three years, the country could experience irreversible regression. The purpose of his proposal is to initiate meaningful discussions on this critical issue.
Nang suggests that the Ministry of Education should focus exclusively on teaching, while other organizational tasks—such as textbook printing, distribution, maintenance, school construction, employee promotions, salaries, and other administrative matters—should be handled by separate agencies.
Additionally, Nang advocates for reducing the volume and number of textbooks in schools, as the current load is excessive for students.
He proposes that, starting from ninth grade, education should become more specialized, improving the quality of learning and better aligning education with the needs of the job market.
Through this comprehensive proposal, Nang seeks to address the broader educational challenges facing Afghanistan and stimulate further dialogue on how to improve the system.
This episode of Subat (Stability) features a detailed conversation with Nang, focusing on his vision for Afghanistan’s educational future.
