Earthquake in Herat Province

Last month a 6.3 magnitude earthquake struck Herat province in Afghanistan followed by repeated aftershakes. In response, we accommodated some of the families affected by the earthquake to sleep in our center which is very safe and earthquake-resistant. Then our teams made performances, workshops social games, and soft entertainment activities for the children who moved with their families to the open-air areas to be safe from partially damaged houses and from all the aftershocks: Finally, we managed to distribute food packages in partnership with Aseel Foundation for hundreds of families.

Festivals and Juggling Championships

Now more than ever children and youth in Afghanistan need to have fun. In September 67 children and youth from 18 different circus teams across the country gathered in Kabul for our annual festival. Inspired by creating and making shows in streets and parks for thousands of audiences in Kabul, the teams returned to their provinces and organized local festivals with public shows in Ghor, Mazar-e-Sharif, Nangarhar, Helmand, Noristan, Badakshan, Herat and Laghman. More than 7,000 audiences participated in the festivals and fun. In October the teams with their best jugglers returned to Kabul for the 2023 National Juggling Championship and once again made remarkable results.
