The project works with the aim of creating a platform to<BR/>promote the interaction, understanding and sensitization between two<BR/>different communities and cultures.<BR/><BR/>Bridge The Gap will be publishing a magazine "The Bridge:Understanding Afghanistan Today" which seeks to provide an alternative image of Afghanistan than the one which is provided in the media. Through this magazine we wish to focus on the post-2001 developments that have been taking place in various spheres in Afghanistan; on the culture and history of Afghanistan; the personal experiences of people who have stayed and worked in Afghanistan or interacted with Afghans; the role of the media and external forces in shaping the situation of Afghanistan, the experiences, expressions and viewpoints of Afghans in Afghanistan and India etc.<BR/><BR/>We were hoping that since you maintain a blog and write about Afghanistan you would be able to help us in our endeavour of spreading awareness about Afghanistan by contributing to our publication by submitting articles, poems, reports, stories, artwork or photography.<BR/><BR/>For more information about the organization and the magazine please feel free to contact me at yp.aryamanbhatnagar@gmail.com<BR/><BR/>Hoping to hear from you soon with a positive response!<BR/><BR/>Thank You!<BR/><BR/>Regards,<BR/><BR/>Aryamanaryaman bhatnagarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00184331186559328675noreply@blogger.com
