Everyone does not report to everyone. Responsibilities and authorities are assigned to individuals based on assessments of their ability to handle them. People are given the authority that they need to achieve outcomes and are held accountable for their ability to produce them.

At the same time, they are going to be stress-tested from both directions--i.e., by those they report to and by those who report to them. The challenging and probing that we encourage is not meant to second-guess their every decision but to improve the quality of their work over time. The ultimate goal of independent thinking and open debate is to provide the decision maker with alternative perspectives. It doesn't mean that decision-making authority is transitioned to those who are probing them.

Education is a basic human right for everyone. But in Afghanistan, girls and women have been deprived of this fundamental right: they are no longer allowed to attend secondary school and higher education.

This devastating decision threatens to wipe out major progress made in education in the country over the past 20 years.

It also makes Afghanistan the only country in world today to restrict girls’ and women’s access to education.

We are calling for an immediate and non-negotiable access to education for all girls and women in Afghanistan.
