SPRING 2019 Dushanbe Spinz Village Kabul Islamabad Safe Schools For Every Student No child should have to study in a building that is unsafe. Yet, more than 200 schools in Tajikistan’s eastern province of GBAO are in terrible condition. Every year, with your help, CAI Tajikistan chips away at that number. Whether it is rebuilding or repairing schools, their goal is to make every school a safe place to learn.
