1. Human rights and individual freedoms: Taliban has imposed many restrictions on human rights and individual freedoms. Women and girls have been deprived of basic rights such as access to education and the right to work, and severe restrictions have been imposed on their presence in social and public arenas. These restrictions have had a negative impact on their daily life and future.
2. Education: The Taliban have imposed strict laws on the education system and most Afghan girls have been denied access to education, especially at the secondary and university levels. Also, the ideological changes in the educational system and the removal of modern and scientific subjects from the courses have seriously affected the educational system of Afghanistan.
3. Economy and unemployment: Afghanistan's economy is in a critical state due to sanctions, reduction of international aid, and economic restrictions of the Taliban. The unemployment rate has increased sharply and many families are facing serious problems to meet their basic needs. High inflation, economic recession, and lack of financial resources have reduced people's living standards.
4. Poverty and lack of basic resources: The increase in poverty and lack of food and medicine is one of the biggest challenges of the people. Prices have risen and many people cannot afford their basic needs. Aid programs of international organizations are also limited due to security and management restrictions.
5. Security and Justice: The Taliban has implemented a traditional judicial system based on a specific interpretation of Islamic Sharia, which sometimes contradicts basic rights and modern justice. Severe punishments and repressive measures to enforce laws have caused fear and insecurity among people.
6. Suppression of the media and freedom of expression: The media is under severe pressure and many independent media are either closed or forced to self-censor. Journalists and social activists also face threats, arrests and many restrictions, and freedom of expression is severely restricted7.
8. Health situation and medical services: Afghanistan's health system, which was already facing many problems, is now facing more challenges. The lack of medicine, specialist and budget has severely limited people's access to health services. Many hospitals are facing a lack of facilities and human resources.
9. Increased migration: Due to the difficult living conditions under the Taliban rule, many Afghans are looking for a way to leave the country. The new wave of immigration to neighboring countries and other parts of the world has increased and many Afghans are willing to accept many risks to leave their country.

In general, living conditions under Taliban rule are associated with widespread problems and put a lot of pressure on the Afghan people, especially women and vulnerable groups.
