KABUL, Afghanistan (Feb. 11) - The Hungarian Provincial Reconstruction Team helped fund the completion of a school recently in Baghlan Province.
The Afghan Ministry of Rural Rehabilitation and Development started the National Solidarity Programme in 2003 and within the framework of this program started construction on a new school in 2009 at the Yarme Ulya settlement in the Jelga district, where hundreds of schoolchildren live.
Local Afghan leaders asked the HUN-PRT to help finish the project in October, and the PRT provided the funds to finish the school.
The PRT participated in a hand-over ceremony for the new building Feb. 4.
