Abstract

Public universities in Afghanistan have faced various ups and downs during the past century. Escaping and leaving university professors in mass form due to the existence of war has been one of the big challenges for universities in Afghanistan. In order to solve this challenge public universities and higher education institutions in Afghanistan hire contract lecturers, which after this process contract lecturers are facing with many big challenges during the teaching as a contract lecturer in public universities and higher education institutions. By Understanding the importance of the subject, this paper seeks to answer this question; What are the most important challenges of contract lecturers in Afghanistan's public universities? The hypothetical answer is that it can be seen that in the recruitment of contract lecturers, no minimum points have been considered for the recruitment of contract lecturers. The procedure is the same as that of a simple worker, and the hiring of contract lecturers is associated with challenges such as discrimination, lack of material and spiritual privileges, lack of job security, lack of social security and etc. The research method of this article is also done with descriptive analytical method and in collecting the information of this article, an effort has been made to use both field and library methods in order to present the important issues for the audience of this article.
