“Awareness through Art”
Report on activities
August 26th, 2009
“I am very happy; this day is the most beautiful day of my life.
Thank you for the
opportunity to enjoy playing with other children.
”
- Mohammed Hassan, a 14 year old boy from the Mawiya district who dropped out of school to work and
help support his family.
He works in the cultivation of qat, a common Yemeni crop, and is harassed at
work because of his age.
His dream is to continue studying until graduating from university.

as well as the importance of education.
