Our approach

is to create a program with universal topics, but present it in a highly contextualized manner for each community.

  • For the Girls

    We wanted to provide a resource to prompt important conversations for marginalized girls regarding women’s health, physical activity, and community-based work throughout all phases of life.

  • The power of cartoons

    We wanted to see how the simplicity of a picture book could foster a community and encourage productive conversations among youth, starting in marginalized communities.

  • The ripple-effect

    This book is being used to introduce female-sensitive conversations, promote healthy lifestyle changes, and cause the “ripple effect” among vulnerable girls – encouraging alternative methods of learning when school isn’t an option.

“These cartoons bring back so many fond memories."

It appears simple - but is far from it. Behind a page of cartoons is hours of research, miles of travel, endless cups of tea (Afghans do love their tea), and numerous iterations of artwork and translations.

Simple as it may appear, the work of creating this content has layers of depth, years of relationships built, and countless stories woven throughout the pages.
