Read What A Mentee Says about MAP
I am an Afghan girl living in Afghanistan, facing numerous difficulties and hardships. Since the Taliban took over, everything changed, especially for Afghan girls and women. In situations like this, where women in Afghanistan lack basic rights, having a supporter like MAP is a major support for me. For more than two years, there was not anyone who considered girls like me. Therefore, I think I am one of the luckiest girls who could participate, have this chance, and be one of the members of MAP. I really appreciate this program.
I always will be cheerful that I became familiar with MAP and my dear mentor.
One short piece of advice I can give to those girls who live in Afghanistan is, one day all of this will be over and changed. Therefore, never give up on your future. It is absolutely hard to stay optimistic and hopeful alone; try to reach out to people and programs who can support you in the process.
