- 19 female medical students banned from attending university in Afghanistan have arrived in Scotland to finish their studies. They were forced to give up medicine after the Taliban retook control of Afghanistan.
The Linda Norgrove Foundation worked with the UK and Scottish governments to arrange visas & places at 4 medical schools in Scotland for the students.

Im so happy for them. Well done to the lovely couple who did this for them. They have done wonderful thing in their daughters name. Because of them there will be 19 more doctors doing wonderful work saving lives. 👏👏👏
This is not the only case, we have how many millions of hasidic jews?? Which one of their girls went to university and which of their girls goes to our universities and when did the government made an issue out of it??? Never, because it is in our own backyard so it ok ha ha ha ha
Wikipedia lists 129211 Hasidic households worldwide! What millions are you talking about?! Get your obsession seen to!
My heart broke when I realized their daughter died in my country, I am still leaving in Kabul and this sad news just added to my hate for the Taliban.
Welcome to Scotland and enjoy what Scotland had to offer. Most Scottish people are nice, generous, and understanding
Except for the horrible government
@@Maynards_so_blueoh be quiet!
Keep the girls warm. They're not used to Scottish weather 😂🥶
@@BP-of5cp Truth hurts, I'm sure they'll fit in the Ghetto that is govenhill, there's not YT ppl there anyway.
As an afghan student from Malaysia thanks from the couple to support afghan students and whoever help in this 🙏🙏
Thanks for sckotlands government for this nice work for our girls.🙏
Please don't self explode on the streets 😢
@@cvbposhd2789Watch out you don't get arrested for publishing racist comments! Read the news and see what happens to those who promote racism and hate!
These beautiful ladies are so inspiring and elegant in their speech and mannerism. I love the energy they bring after having survived American and NATO violence in their lands and the restrictions by the tribal/ Taliban government.
A special thank you to the parents of the slain victim who made this happen. You are the change!
@@Asma_Mushtaq taliban apply sharia law. All sources are based to the Quran.
The US and NATO were there to rescue the country from stone-age Islamists! By writing Islamists propoganda, you give away your mindset!
@DearBill
No. The txliban txrrorists are made by ppl who make profi from war. But yes. Unfortunately Islam is always a useful tool for them.
@@baharafghanzad_0093 wrong. They apply sharia.
Such a hero couple ❤
As an Afghanistanian I appreciate it,long live England
They’ll be saving lives. I’m all for that. Much love for you both
They seem humble and appreciative, i hope they’ll do great 💜✨
As an afghan girl, I am very happy to see my sisters for having the opportunity to further their education and fulfil their dreams . I wish them all the best and hopefully one day they could give back to the community.
It’s very difficult to see how women in Afghanistan face obstacles despites all the challenges they want to overcome all the challenges and continue their journey ❤🇦🇫I am also a student from Afghanistan in India doing my further education. I am happy to hear and see these girls make it happen to peruse their dreams ❤🎉🥹🇦🇫
I was also a student of the fifth class of medical school in Afghanistan, and I am currently banned from continuing my studies.😭😭😭😭
I had first rank among my class 😢
Just discasting why are you lieing to the west why ? About taliban they even don't harm you ?
Yeah. It’s hard for Afghan women and men. Taliban made Afghanistan 🇦🇫 prison for Afghan people.
@@Armannortheast indeed.
@@safisofficial8921
She is not lying.
@@baharafghanzad_0093 i know. I’m Afghan American
Enormous Thanks to Linda Norgrove foundation and to John and Laura for their humanity. They are the Hero .❤❤
I wish these ladies a successful future in becoming a doctor. Good luck ❤❤❤❤
I graduate from university in November and I can’t imagine being told I would have to stop my degree. It must of been devastating, women over there basically have no human rights what so ever. Something needs to change ASAP.
We thanks to the UK 🇬🇧 🙏 for support ❤🇦🇫🇬🇧❤all over
As an Afghan Nursing student here in Scotland! I really appreciate and am grateful for the opportunity I have. I will do my best to contribute to society.
Hey, it's great to know that you're are able to live your life as your wish 💓 unlike many others who aren't able to...
If you don't mind will you kindly share how you get into nursing school in Scotland? I'm looking for a career in Scotland. I'm from Non EU country.💖
For me as a gay man. I am from N.Ireland & moved to Manchester in the mid 00's...In NI we've started having Muslim immigrants come but not back then. I just remember looking at the women when I arrived in Manchester in a warm Summer, the women were dressed from head to toe in black, which I assume has been drummed into them. The men were dressed in comfortable sportswear. They don't have to wear their robes all the time. Why do the women. To a rational person it is misoganynistic.
Not really it depends on the women sometimes. In Islam you don’t have to cover your face but yeah it’s mostly for modesty so that men done glare at a womens figure and so that she can walk comfortably not getting looked at in a weird way
@@Crystal.0786To stop men glaring at them. Clearly that's misogynistic. That they have to do that?
@@peeg09 why? Everyone should respect a person and a women isn’t a toy, she including men themselves should respect themselves and not look at one another in a disrespectful way and manner
I find it intriguing how the UK often dictates what is wrong around the world, yet right here in Manchester, my neighbor's 20-year-old son, who is disabled, has been out of education for the past five years. The local government refuses to fund his education, despite the parent's efforts, including going to tribunals. She describes it as a vicious cycle of abuse. It makes me wonder why the UK doesn’t focus more on ensuring equal rights and opportunities for its own disabled citizens.
The UK offers a range of support for disabled citizens, acknowledging the significant number of individuals in need of such services.
@@Anime-Face.Evidently not or the parents would not be fighting for 5 years.
A U.K government should be able too make the system function for disabled peoples & for genuine refugees,especially the refugees our government literally helped displace. As one of the richest countries on the face of the planet, we should be able too accomplish both our domestic & international obligations. If we didn’t let the corporate financial elite hoarders, keep hoarding the wealth for themselves, we’d have plenty money for all of the countries needs. I wish people would point thier finger of dissatisfaction at the correct targets.
Yeah, but these students were financed by a charity. Plus, we can't always just go for the lowest common denominator - I notice that all the time about the UK. "You can't do something positive. because there is someone who needs help more". Glad I left and moved to the US; it's no wonder growth is so low in the UK. Wishing these guys the best of luck!
The efforts universities make to include and accommodate students with disabilities in the UK are truly incredible. Are you referring to high school? If he wants to re-sit his exams, there are plenty of colleges that could support him. Moreover, it shouldn't be a choice between helping one group or another; we should celebrate and support the opportunity for Afghan women to study here, especially given the oppressive regime they face back home.
What wonderful human beings the family of Linda N.!
The world is failing women and girls ( and all people of Afghanistan) miserably!
I’m proud of you beautiful strong ladies!
❣️
And we are very proud to have you beautiful young ladies
It is a great news that 19 students will have the opportunity to get educated.
I am so happy they get to continue their education👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Well Done Scotland!! ❤❤❤Canada accepts these women and other like them here as well!
As a newly arrived Afghan girl in the UK, I feel an immense sense of pride and joy watching this video. It has deeply motivated me and filled me with happiness to see my fellow Afghan girls, who have dedicated nearly a decade of their lives to education, finally have the opportunity to pursue their studies, goals, and dreams with greater ease and more resources. Their resilience and perseverance inspire me, and I am profoundly moved by the thought that they can now continue their journey toward a brighter future.
In addition, I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to the couple who made this possible. Their efforts have changed countless lives, and the impact of their kindness and dedication will be felt for generations to come.
Hw did the couple get the girls out?
As a girl from Afghanistan who couldn't continue my education journey, has been forced to migrate illegally to Pakistan and is now
hopelessly passing her life in the corner of home, I really appreciate this couple and what they had done❤️ and I'm happy for and jealous of these girls at the same time :)
Do you study In Pakistan? And where do you live
Jealousy is a SIN.
Jealousy is a SIN.
Pakistan
Deported thousands
Of Afgans back.
How did u get into Pakistan?
Are u even real?
@@Saad_889 No, I don't..
@@LoveforGaza24 None of the human feelings are SIN, it is our nature and if God wanted us to not feel that, God would have never given us. The only thing which is important is our behavior and the way we interact with that feeling 🙄
Afghan women are the strongest women. I am so proud of these girls who are ready to make a difference by sacrificing so many things including being hundreds of miles away from loved ones at this young age. Go girls, go! Afghan women need you back home!
A huge heartfelt thanks to the sponsoring organization!
Well done to linda and sad she lost off her daughter
I’m so happy they are able to continue their studies ❤ They seem immensely grateful and seem like lovely, genuine people. This has brought me a lot of joy today. All the best to them, they are going to do great things in life.
Horrible people in the comments, nothing but hate in their hearts
As an afghan healthcare worker and student, thank you to Laura and John for all their hard work making this happen and supporting young afghan students especially girls. Will allways honour this couple Laura and John and Scotish people for welcoming ths young girls.
A stone age government😮
Things were different just 3 years ago when we even had a female Presidential candidate!
@@JFA-9019your culture is backward
By whicn you mean UK as well because millions of Hasidic Jewish women never went to any univesity and they are all in UK so yes UK numbers stone age agree...
@@democracyforallStop trolling all over this channel! The issues are entirely different and I've explained why elsewhere here.
I am really happy for this , and I hope they all study hard and wish them success and wanna see them as a great doctors in the near future 🎉
I am also in awe - this is wonderful
Well done for the lovely couple ❤
They were not accepted based on their talent, they are here based on their family and ethnic ties
This is fantastic news for those ladies , however what happens when they finish their studies ? If they’re banned from education then surely they’ll be banned from practicing medicine back home also ?
I'm confused are these women training so they can go back and treat women in Afghanistan. Or are they here to get highly paid jobs in the NHS?
Oh she wants to get the degree, work in Scotland, and become a political activist.
@@sc3304Be careful you don't spread misinformation! People have been arrested for such posts!
@@sc3304highly paid and NHS don't belong in the same sentence 😂
Thanks to the charity/foundation and the couple for providing this opportunity to these girls. InshaAllah, they will save lives one day.
As an Afghan i cant thank enough the Scottish people. Its really tough for girls to get into médical schools there as the system was designed to favor boys. they are really talented people.
is university still banned for girls?
As a Afghan i am so happy for this bravery girls but i have still hard pain in my heart for others girls and women in Afghanistan 🇦🇫. I can’t nothing to do 💔
is university still banned for girls?
Really happy for them
As an afghan student from Germany i thanks from the couple to support afghan students. Good bless you all❤❤❤
This is great!!! All the best for them and good luck on their studies
So happy they will be able to continue their studies. Wishing them well. Incredible girls!
Same
These girls 😢 imagine all these afghan men e tearing illegally and leaving their women behind knowing women and girls have it harder then men over there. Why weren’t more women prioritized during the withdrawal
These girls have to pay double of what they get now after completion of their university. Nothing is going to be free.
A friend of mine went through similar charity organizations and he had to pay it back after he became a doctor in the US!
Wich universe are you living in?
Sending my love and gratitude to the couple who helped these girls continue their higher education, one of them is my friend and truly happy for her, same for the other girls.
This couple is a hero, we need more people like them in the world. ❤❤❤
I know how you guys feel and how happy you are here. best of the Luch sisters.
Well done beautiful ladies you so deserve this ❤❤😊
So nice ❤
Special thanks to Laura & John for their support and encouragement to help the students get their dream jobs and save lives ❤❤
Thanks Scotland and UK🇦🇫🙏🏻
They are from my country, keep going on my friends and come back to Afghanistan, we will rebuild our country again.
How?
They aint never going back lol
Neither are the Ukrainian women and children 😅
Might be because there aren't enough doctors in the UK and you need them here.
@@Sarahk41 that’s because immigration is off the scale
@@mjl2904 Exactly!
@@mjl2904 funny enough Farage and co didn't have a problem with the Ukranian refugees, but as soon as a couple Afghan girls want to finish their education in a safe country people want to say something
Hope for A good Life for them in future
Helful foundation and lovely Afghan students...well done.
thanks scotland. i am a hazara in switzerland, its heart broken to see our sisters can not go school under pashtun ethnicity tero** taliban
I hope their ideals and religious values will not be corrupted now given where they live
The risk was just as high in Afghanistan to be honest.
@@Asma_Mushtaq this doesn't make sense at all
@@revivalist355 then your understanding of the cultural situation in the region might be quite weak.
Please acquaint yourself with the historic studies on how cultural norms overpower religious norms, especially during and after wars, especially among tribal people in rural and small town regions.
I do not have any material to hand atm, but you could research the history of pathan, paktoon and pushto-speaking people (these terms are sometimes used interchangeably, while others make a mark division between them), as a starting point. You will be better guided if you do not rely exclusively on orientalist literature.
I hope that helps.
Such a lucky girls that the got the chance to continue their study cuz there are still many girls who can't continue their study and live their life as they want. 😞
It is incredible to see how two people changed the lives of 19 young, dedicated and talented girls and allowed them to live and exist again. May your daughter's soul rest in peace and I am sure she is so proud of you both.
Good Luck.
Thank you amazing people ❤
Great 🇦🇫 ❤
Let them educate 🇦🇫
thanks for this great job
Any country receiving appeals from Afghan women should allow them to seek asylum. It is beyond horrifying to see what is happening to women and girls. We MUST try and help where we can.
But the uk is still so evil 🙄
I really appreciate this great achievement for these brave girls and the foundation. Proud of you 👏
Thanks for helping ❤God bless you ❤❤
Good for you, it's my dream 😔
If they can't work in Afghanistan then why they coming here to study?
Thank you all Scotland pp who every helpe Afghan woman ❤❤❤👍
A good initiative as long as they return to Afghanistan after their training as their services will be needed much more over there.
Thanks for this lovely couple who brought them to start
I’m really happy for both of you well done strong woman
So heart touching 😢
We spilled blood and money what do they want more from the west why can't they go to sadai Arabia or Dubai
They will never go back and serve their country I can surely tell that.
So wonderful
Good for these women
My her beautiful soul rest in peace
God bless her wonderful parents 💖
Good luck to the Afghan girls and i hope they do Thier best to give back to the wonderful cuple and The Great Britain
Such a difficult question to answer as afghan girl and student I have to face this question a lot here in India from friends, teachers, neighbours 😀, what is your plan after you finish, will you go back to your country 😢…. It’s really hard to say yes and no , and you feel you are in the middle of no where what to decide. I just wish everything gets better and hopefully one day we could go back 🇦🇫 and serve for the people of my homeland 🇦🇫❤️
Goodluck of All of u my home land young Ladys ...
I am proud of Afghan Girls.they Are strong enough to follow their way ahead
All The best to all of them ❤❤
Proud of this girls
Continue studying?? So it's all the same course to be a doctor then? I want to be my own doctor I'm more experienced with my issues than the doctors currently not even my family are aware of what's going on they even admit this.
Hello how could we apply for?
Enjoy your studies ladies and even more importantly your freedom. Success with your futures.
Proud of you❤
Well done to everyone
God bless them 🙌🙏❤️
Education has changed their future.Having said that,they will be forced to stay at home and be good wife by their future husband later.
Amazing couple!
sorry to say but they wont return back home
Do we just not help our own there's so many people need help in the uk
Why don't you set up a charity like this couple did and do it. This is not a government supported initiative. This couple arranged it.
@@Sarahk41Unfortunately, some people are being conditioned by certain TV channels and websites to think that way.
Im a aghan girl too i live in iran but i can not countinu my education because my father ia an addict
Can wourld help me im so disappointed 😢😞
Lovely story for the girls...
I need the same promotion 😢 I'm a medical student
More tax payers money wasted
Afghanistan is the real hero.
Unfortunately this is not a help and charity this is a political move to divide more and more Afghan ethnic group Do you really believe in all Afghanistan in all women you find and brought 70% all hazara
This is unacceptable to rest of Afghan women this is injustice in name of Afghan women
