Narrative

Full Description

Project narrative

In 2016, the Embassy of China in Afghanistan provided a grant for the reconstruction of Miba elementary school (米巴小学) and Tahgwa elementary school (塔格瓦小学) in Paghman District and Kabul Province. The amount of the grant is unknown. The reconstruction handover ceremony was held on September 17, 2016. There are nearly 4,000 students in a school in Tahgwa, including 1,800 girls. Due to the poor state of school buildings, the limited number of classrooms can only accommodate students in batches. After the completion of the school reconstruction project, the classroom windows of the two schools were equipped with glass; the roof was reinforced and made rainproof; private toilets were installed. and the new school building greatly improved the enthusiasm of local residents to send their children to school.

Staff comments

These two schools are also known as the China-Afghanistan Friendship School in Paghman District. The spelling of these elementary schools cannot be found, so we simply provide pinyin translations.
