 Village school Chewa

In Chewa, a small village in proximity to the provinces of Kunar and Nangahar, we started building the "Lions Peace-School Chewa" in December. The groundbreaking ceremony complete with the traditional presentation of a corner stone plate took place on 3 December 2002. The Afghan Minister for Education and the Governor of the Province were special guests. On 11 September 2003 this school celebrated the opening ceremony. The Governor of the Province, Haji DIN Muhammad, the Secretary of education, Haji Renna, official representatives of UNICEF, International Red Cross, Nanghahar government representatives and many children were present. We chose the date of September 11th for the opening ceremony of the new the peace school Chewa on purpose. This day - two years after the terrorist attacks – is therefore now also a symbol for peace and the reconstruction of Afghanistan. Dr. Reinhard Eroes stressed this in its inaugural address.

This school is sponsored by the Bavarian chapter of the Lions Club, Germany
