The bustling art centre that Zarminah* manages in Afghanistan has been in survival mode since late December.The activities at the centre, which was a hotspot for women, came to an abrupt halt when the Taliban foisted a ban on women attending universities and all teaching institutes last December.The decree was brought in as a result of women not following Islamic rules, says a Taliban official; it was enforced by the Ministry for the Propagation of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice, whose representatives barged into centres and ordered female students to leave.
