Inside Afghanistan: Girls just want education as a right not a privilege

RTÉ's Foreign Editor Eimear Lowe is in Afghanistan, where she is visiting UNICEF-run community schools in Herat province where girls, desperate to go to school, appeal to the international community to help them.

The Internally Displaced People (IDP) camp that the Bismullah family calls home is by a main road in Afghanistan's Herat province.

It's one of the more permanent camps, populated by single-storey, mud buildings rather than tents.

We visit on a dry, warm spring day and clouds of dust rise as we move. In the rain this place must be even more miserable.

The Bismullahs welcome us into their small yard and Mr Bismullah politely answers our questions as his neighbours peer curiously over the walled boundary of his tiny holding.
