    As the Taliban take control of more districts, it's important to understand what governance under their rule is like. Although they officially state that they do not oppose girls’ education, very few actually permit girls to attend school past puberty. https://www.hrw.org/report/2020/06/30/you-have-no-right-complain/education-social-restrictions-and-justice-taliban-held …pic.twitter.com/1xwXbIZQxZ

        Taliban claim that the differences in access are due to security and varying levels of acceptance of girls’ education within the communities. But their district and provincial officials also determine implementation of policies in the areas they control. https://www.hrw.org/report/2020/06/30/you-have-no-right-complain/education-social-restrictions-and-justice-taliban-held …pic.twitter.com/AlXjsBIJbO

        Social controls embodied in “morality” officials—known as “vice and virtue” police when the Taliban were in power in the 1990s—continue to operate in districts under Taliban control.https://www.hrw.org/report/2020/06/30/you-have-no-right-complain/education-social-restrictions-and-justice-taliban-held …

        As the Taliban have consolidated control over contested areas, their restrictions have tightened, not eased. As government influence wanes, the Taliban will seem less willing to heed community demands about the protection of rights.https://www.hrw.org/report/2020/06/30/you-have-no-right-complain/education-social-restrictions-and-justice-taliban-held …

        On vital issues of governance, the Taliban haven't developed consistent policies but rather a set of reflexive and reactive practices. They have rolled back some harsh measures in response to communities' demands, but residents cannot register complaints.https://www.hrw.org/report/2020/06/30/you-have-no-right-complain/education-social-restrictions-and-justice-taliban-held …
