/ A New Magazine Helps Afghan Children Build Dreams

Par Claudine Boeglin, Editor-in-Chief, Parvaz , National Geographic Magazine

Parvaz, the first full-color magazine for Afghan children, offers a bimonthly escape for Dari-and Pashto-speaking girls and boys from 7 through 14 years old. It was launched in August 2002 as a means of educating and entertaining children, bridging gaps between parents and their kids, and providing an educational tool for teachers. The Farsi word for "flight," Parvaz presents vivid artwork and photographs aimed at encouraging creativity and freedom of expression among Afghan children. It's all about seeing things differently and letting imaginations fly.
