Zan News: The Malala Yousafzai Foundation, led by Nobel laureate and girls' education advocate Malala Yousafzai, has announced its support for women's rights activists in Afghanistan working to recognize "gender apartheid" in international law.

In a statement released on Thursday (September 5) marking the tenth anniversary of its activities, the foundation reiterated its concern about the halt to girls' education in Afghanistan. The Malala Yousafzai Foundation emphasized that over the past year, it has increased funding for Afghan girls' education.

The statement read: "In the past year, we have strengthened our commitment to Afghan girls and women by launching various programs and providing additional funding for online education programs for girls who have been deprived of education."

According to the statement, the Malala Yousafzai Foundation has supported 21.8 million students in different countries over the past 10 years.

It is noteworthy that a few months ago, the foundation also announced it had donated $1.5 million for girls' education in Afghanistan.

This comes as numerous human rights activists and some global organizations have called for the recognition of "gender apartheid" in international laws due to the severe violation of women's rights by the Taliban in Afghanistan.
