The courses are open to low-income families and are taught by qualified instructors. The vocational training courses teach skills such as tailoring, which can help women and children find employment. The courses on the Holy Quran teach the basic tenets of Islam and can help people develop their spirituality.

More than 2,000 women and children have participated in the courses since they began. Participants say they are grateful for the opportunity to learn both practical skills and religious knowledge.

Officials and organizers believe that expanding skill development opportunities is vital, particularly for women and children from low-income backgrounds.

With the prevailing increase in poverty across the nation, the creation of such opportunities is anticipated to have a positive and transformative impact on the lives of those facing economic challenges.

As Afghanistan navigates complex social and economic issues, initiatives like these underscore the potential of education to uplift communities and provide a path toward self-reliance and spiritual growth. . (ILKHA)
