TIRANA: Prince Andrew’s former wife Sarah Ferguson met Afghan refugees in Albania and raised her voice for Afghan girls’ education.
Taking to her Instagram handle, Sarah shared photos with the Afghan refugees including the top female judges, other women leaders in their respective fields, the all-girls national cycling team, doctors, long-serving military, mothers, fathers, and children, some of who had been separated from their parents.
In the first picture, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie’s mother can be seen raising a placard inscribed with the slogan “To the world! Afghan girls matter! They have the right to study!”
In the caption of the post, Sarah says, “The refugee camp was located at the Kolivari resort in Golem and I was welcomed by an Afghan poet, Mohammad Zaria, with a poem about peace, written specially.”
In Afghanistan, the Taliban had briefly reopened schools for girls on March 23, following months of relentless pressure. However, celebrations were short-lived, as they were immediately closed again without any explanations.
