INEE¡¯s drafts for the educational policies designed amidst the conflict
without a sound epistemological approach give the impression that the
definition of their progress and sustainability is reduced to mere statistical
data. The theoretical conceptualizations seem to be apolitical and don¡¯t use a
contextual and intersectional feminist lens producing a wide longitudinal
research gap. This study intends to explore these research gaps in the policy
frame analysis of INEE through a gendered lens and contextualizes the case
study of Afghanistan. It hypothesizes that the de-politicization,
exclusiveness, repatriation, and short-term vision of INEE policies are
responsible for not achieving the desired results. A comprehensive
consideration and mapping of geopolitical and biopolitical realities of Afghan
women along with a structural understanding of socio-cultural realities,
however, might lead to the better drafting of educational policies for women
during the conflict and crisis</span></span></span><span><span><span style=\"font-family:;\" \"=\"\">.
