Education is a child's right. It is the way to peace and stability, toward erasing 30 years of war, oppression, poverty and despair. In April 2007, 5,000 rural Afghan schoolchildren and their parents crafted paper-chains and wrote messages to the President and Minister of Education. Their requests were simple: paid teachers, trained teachers, safe school buildings and supplies—all the things that IRC is working with the Afghan people and government to provide for their children.

  • i will build my country inshallah, even if i get killed i don't care. but first of all i need their prayers so that i can get done with my education and then i will return back to my country with the power of strong education to fight for the rights of these kids, and to be rewarded with those innocent smiles at the back of the windows.. my all love and adore goes for u little afghan sweethearts. love u so much and may Allah keep you in his protection!

  • What disappoints me is that so many afghans outside of afghanistan looooove their country but won't do fuck all to help rebuild it. and the ones who do return are usually greedy opportunist afghans who live in europe or north america and go back and forth bringing all the profits home, instead of regenerating it back into afghan society.

    and, (im afghan by the way) everytime i go to a protest against the war, i am the only afghan there. pitiful. you are comfortable so noone else matters right?

  • @Sadaf333  good luck

  • @Ozmit get a job

  • The nigger-religion of the moslim/arabs was re-forced on the Afghans and Iranians through the British MI6 and CIA as a part of operation Greenbelt to push these countries into chaos. In afghanistan they shipped in the Taliban and Al Quaida and Iran it was the Mullahs and paying their arab negro slaves to start wars against Iran. The results: Total devastation.

  • let the world understand it .... look at..... what the Jew and Arab did on the road ....check...travel without borders and be free...

  • @Sadaf333 your intentions are admirable...but its due to the nonsense hoax re a sick mythical allah and the filth/immorality of islam that your people suffer so appallingly

    afghan has the worst mortality for women/infants and is at the bottom end of scale re human rights/education

    muslim males regard females as DIRTY...and these are 'pious' muslim males

    your country will only thrive if it gets rid of the hoax of islam

    WHATa allah lol...he/she has NEVER protected any victims of islam

  • @Sadaf333 First build ur self my friend sadaf333 the heart and the tongue are like ends of the same coin it is the holder who makes the choices but once flipped

    faith takes its part in science we'll call it gravity without it the coin would remain flipping and we wouldnt have the luxury of choice.

  • I'm in the military and I absolutely love the Afghan people. I truly want to do well for the country and its people. I've even went to school to learn Pashto and am currently learning Urdu. I've been there three times and I know war is absolutely horrible but I've seen what we are doing there first hand and I know it will make a difference in the long run just as long as we continue to educate the Afghan people because education is the most important thing right now.

  • @muziquelle You have a kind heart...

    May Allah bless you!
