Description :
An Acehnese teacher started a school amidst the ruins of the school building, which was destroyed during the conflict between the Indonesian government and the Free Aceh Movement (GAM) armed group. His strength comes from his belief on the merit of education and the support from others, including the ICRC.
He covered the building, originally a teacher lounge, with iron sheeting provided by the ICRC.
