Jalalabad, Nangarhar | Tuesday, March 06, 2007

Hazratullah, a young shopkeeper from Jalalabad, is a recent graduate of APEP's Accelerated Learning courses. He says it has helped change his life. "Now I am able to calculate purchases with numbers. If someone borrows from my store, I am able to write down who has borrowed and how much. ... If you are uneducated, you cannot accomplish much in life."
