A LONDONDERRY arts centre will be observing International World Peace Day with a photographic exhibition from Amnesty International regarding Afghan women in the UK.
It’s the result of the British Afghan Women’s Society and tells five women’s stories of growing up in Afghanistan and the UK, living through war, revolution and exile and returning to their home at a time of great uncertainty.
Their roots, culture and adjustments of living in another culture are revealed as well as their hopes for Afghanistan’s future.
The exhibition runs from September 20 to October 4, 2013 at Eden Place Arts Centre, Rossville Street.
