It has been just over three years since the collapse of the Western-supported government in Afghanistan. This came almost immediately after the United States pulled its troops out of the country after 20 years of war. The Taliban quickly took control of the country and began enacting policies and restrictions that ultimately take away basic rights for girls and women. This is all in the midst of an ongoing humanitarian crisis, with widespread hunger across the country. To speak more on this, host Jeff Douglas spoke with Lauryn Oates. She is the executive director of the organization Right to Learn, formerly known as Canadian Women for Women in Afghanistan. This organization has been providing education to Afghan women and girls since 1998.
