In a ceremony organized by Afghanistan Think Room (ATR) in Kabul, a number of civil society activists, artists and university students emphasized the role of happiness and hopefulness among the Afghan people, particularly the youth.
The event called “The Autumn Rainbow Cultural and Artistic Ceremony” took place on October 25, 2013 at the Afghanistan Think Room headquarters in Kabul.
Media, management, public speaking, book and traditional handicrafts exhibitions were the other significant part of the ceremony.
A number of speakers in the ceremony also emphasized the importance of happiness and warned about the low level of hopefulness and happiness among the Afghan people.
According to Meraj, ATR is one of the few institutions in Afghanistan which has provided the opportunity for a considerable number of Afghan youth, particularly students of social sciences to improve their public speaking and journalism skills in a professional manner.
A large number of the ceremony’s participants were women, whereas normally, very few women participate in public events in Afghanistan.
Poetry and music programs and reading short stories were other significant parts of the ceremony.
According to Alia Rajai, the ceremony’s coordinator, women’s role was significant in the management of the event too.
