| Summary |
As the Taliban gained and consolidated their hold over territory, they were forced to become responsible for the well-being of local communities. Even as the Taliban leadership remained focused on military objectives, in recent years they began to develop policies to deliver education and health services in particular, in some cases reversing earlier policies that denied these services. A study of several diverse districts across Afghanistan reveals that the Taliban leadership has attempted to establish a certain uniformity in its governance of territory largely or partly under its control. The Taliban initially opposed government schools, but they later developed policies that allowed schools to function, as well as permitting girls to attend school to age twelve. Should there be a peace process, the Taliban and government will need to reconcile their differences on service delivery in the areas falling under their control. |
