Update
By Toc Dunlap | Executive Director
Applying what she had learned in her AIL leadership class, Fariba tells how she helped one of her classmates:
Fariba says, “I know a girl who was a student of high school, but unfortunately her relatives and family did not like her going to school and finally they stopped her. One day, she secretly came to school and told me her story. By thinking about the methodology of leadership that I learned from AIL, I decided to help her and went to her home to talk with her family. I talked to her parents and gave them some examples of what I learned in the leadership class about women. Fortunately, their parents accepted these ideas and now allow her to continue her education. I am so proud of myself that I could help this girl make a new future”.

Summer Update 2010
By Sondra Johnson | Project Administrator
The Afghan Institute of Learning schedules and holds leadership and democracy workshops in several provinces throughout the year. Participants learn an awareness of their human rights, the meaning of democracy, how they can participate in their society and hold elected leaders accountable, how they themselves can serve people and as individuals, practical ways they can bring democracy and respect human rights. Year to date in 2010, AIL has given 12 specific workshops and seminars that teach leadership, democracy and capacity building skills to 359 participants. In addition, human rights and leadership values are taught in all other workshops and seminars.
A participant of a leadership workshop this year in Herat shares, “I didn’t understand my responsibilities in our society and actually, I didn’t understand who is a leader before I attended this workshop. Now I realize my responsibility and I can bring positive changes in the life of people in my environment. I can solve the problems of people because I attended a capacity building workshop at the AIL office and this second workshop.”
