Since 2003, more than 85,000 Afghan students benefited from peace education curriculum implemented by Help the Afghan Children. This type of education is taught by role-play involving puppets. Students are acting out hostile situations and resolve them in a peaceful manner. In this episode of Learning World, 
we accompany a student participating in the programme and listen to her experiences. 

Afghanistan has been a battleground for over three decades. But on-going efforts by its people who work toward rebuilding Afghanistan have resulted in many successful projects such as Help the Afghan children.
