Watch the solar lights come on in Afghanistan!

The Ordinary Heroes of Afghanistan documents the Barefoot approach to rural development in five communities in Afghanistan. The film was produced by the Barefoot College and Roughcut Productions with support from a Skoll Foundation grant.

Hailed by Fast Company magazine as "the best thing going" in rural development, the Barefoot College is the recipient of the 2006 Alcan Prize for Sustainability and the 2005 Skoll Award for Social Entrepreneurship. Skoll’s grant is helping the Barefoot College bring the “Barefoot Approach” to 30 communities in five countries.

We invite you to join us for the film premier of The Ordinary Heroes of Afghanistan and an evening with Bunker Roy, founder and director of the Barefoot College. Space is limited so please reserve your tickets early.
