The finished shell of the building

Dear Donor,

we are very happy to give you an update on the latest developments at the Mohammad Parsa Primary School in Kabul, Afghanistan!

December 2021: The Shell is finished

Shortly before the onset of winter, the second floor of the shell of the main building had been completed. As the winter in Afghanistan is very cold, the construction work had to be paused for the following few weeks.

April 2022: The construction work continues!

While the construction work was at a standstill during the winter months (Dec. 2021 - March 2022), some work took place to prepare for its resumption. After the New Year and Spring Festival Nauruz (21 March 2022), the construction work finally started again. So at the moment many things are going on in parallel like the completion of the main building and the construction of the toilet block. At the same time, the local partner OASE reactivated the school development committee of the school. In the four meetings so far, the participants appreciated the progress at the school and collected important suggestions for the next steps.

Even with the good news however, we still rely on your support to fully finance the project. Apart from that, Afghanistan is experiencing the largest humanitarian crisis in the world. 95 % of the population is endangered by food insecurity or malnutrition to an unprecedented degree (UN OCHA). That is because of the economic collapse, the deterioration of the finance and health sector, extreme droughts and international sanctions after the Taliban took power.

Therefore, we are grateful for any donation that helps us to contribute to a sustainable positive development of the country. In this context, we'd also be very happy if you shared our work with your colleagues or family and friends! Of course we will keep you posted on the Mohammad Parsa Primary School in the coming months.

If you want to stay informed about the developments in Afghanistan as well as about our other projects, feel free to follow us on Instagram.

Thank you very much and all the best. :)
