باهمته نجلۍ؛ د ژوند د سختو ننګونو سره مبارزه

د کابل اوسېدونکې، څانګه هوتک، چې په نهه کلنۍ کې د یوې چاودنې له امله یې د دواړو سترګو د نظر نعمت له لاسه ورکړ، د زړورتیا او همت بیلګه ده. څانګه اوس د شپږم ټولګي زده کوونکې ده. که څه هم د نظر نه لرل د هغې لپاره لویه ننګونه وه، خو هغې خپل هوډ او هڅې جاري وساتلې. دا مهال څانګه په پښتو، دری، او انګلیسي ژبو لیکل کولی شي. برسېره پر دې، څانګه د خپلې مور سره د کور کارونو کې مرسته کوي او لاسي صنایع جوړوي، چې بیا یې په خپل ګاونډ کې پلوري. د دې زړورتیا او هڅې ټولو ته دا درس ورکوي چې د ژوند ستونزې د هوډ او باور په مرسته ماتېدی شي.

Dreams Locked Behind Gates: The Closure of Midwifery Training Centers in Afghanistan

“What’s happening?” Amina asked, her voice tinged with unease. One of her classmates, Zohra, looked at her, eyes brimming with anger and despair.

The sun was low over Kabul, casting a soft orange glow on the mountains as Amina stepped out of her modest home. Her bag was slung over her shoulder, filled with notebooks and a well-thumbed anatomy textbook. She walked quickly, eager to make it to her midwifery training center before the streets fi...
