PROJECTS: Fukushima, Afghan high school students swap stories online


High school students from Japan and Afghanistan might not be expected to have much in common, but Peter Crowley, UNICEF's representative in Afghanistan, learned otherwise during his first trip to Fukushima Prefecture.
After visiting the prefecture Thursday to attend a Web conference between Yumoto High School in Iwaki and Tajwar Saltana Girls High School in Kabul, Crowley told The Japan Times that the students showed solidarity in their determination to make a better future for themselves.
