Current Affairs Czech NGO runs “Sun School” in the Himalayas
The Himalayan village of Kargyak, located in one of the most remote areas of the world, has something no other community in the area does: a Czech school. Last September, the Prague-based Surya association opened a “Sun School”, a self-sustainable building that provides basic education for up to eighty children of the Lungnag valley in the Indian state of Jammu-Kashmir. Jan Tilinger, the head of the Surya association and the school’s designer, explains how he got involved in a project on the roof of the world.
