MMCC’s aim is to reach children all over Afghanistan

MMCC’s Mobile Team has been fully active the entire school season this year. In the spring and early summer the artists performed their educational Landmine Awareness performances for 70,000 children in Jalalabad, Mazar-i-Sharif, Balkh, Kandahar and Bamyan. In Kandahar they did also a workshop for children and teachers, and in August a workshop and performances including Peace Education in Herat.

Three Puppet workshops in Baghlan and Balkh provinces in October and November included a Conflict Resolution theme. And before the winter the team is on the road again as part of cooperation with UNIFEM where the artists will make workshops and performances in Parwan and Jalalabad. In these workshops girls and women assisted by MMCC’s mobile artists will create their own radio program and performances with an overall theme of highlighting girls and women’s capacities for being active parts of the society. In the performances the artists will include their Peace Education performance to create awareness in the local communities about peaceful co-existence.
