The Afghan Women's Mission and the Revolutionary Association of the Women of Afghanistan together run eight schools in the cities and refugee camps of Pakistan, providing education to nearly two thousand girls and boys at primary, secondary and high school levels. Though RAWA is running about twelve schools in Pakistan, AWM is only financing eight of them.
In addition, AWM is financing ninety nine literacy courses in Afghanistan and Pakistan with nearly fifteen hundred students. We also funded eighty six home based (clandestine) schools for girls and boys prior to the collapse of the Taliban regime in 2001 inside Afghanistan. The home based classes have been discontinued as of February 2002 in favor of opening primary schools and literacy courses in order to meet the needs of students.
