We actually had dinner with a very fine minister of education [in Afghanistan] who is genuinely committed to education for all children, but particularly for girls. Listening to him describe not only the barriers presented by the lack of women teachers — and you’ve got to have women teachers to teach girls in a traditional Islamic society — but also, the fact that they have to produce enough schools so that girls don’t have to travel a significant distance. Because in that traditional society for a girl to travel alone or even in groups is unacceptable. It really just gave me a sense in microcosm of all the barriers to development that are taking place there.
