Kota Kinabalu: Upko Women is throwing its support behind Education Minister Fadhlina Sidek who recently urged the Taliban government to remove its restrictions on enrolment by women into higher learning institutions and universities in Afghanistan.
Upko Women Exco Secretary Rowindy Lawrence Odong agreed that such policy is not only backward but also against human rights as it is driven by gender prejudice which is outright discriminatory.
“Our social fabric is undermined by gender bias and its effects can be seen and felt all over the world.
