Lessons in Tolerance

Zakia Tan Munira traveled a long way from Banda Aceh, Aceh's provincial capital, to visit two elementary schools in North Aceh's remote subdistricts.

The 24-year-old went with three other members of the Salam Damee (Greetings of Peace) Community in Aceh, a group that focuses on spreading peace and tolerance, founded by Acehnese youths. They held a session for fourth graders from the two schools. "We had a one-day sharing session with the children," said Zakia, better known as Ira.
