The First Special Radio and Educational Program for Immigrant Children in Iran
The Amir Khusrow Balkhi Foundation has made significant efforts in the field of education for immigrant children, aiming to nurture untapped talents from an early age.
Children are the future assets of every nation. Today’s children will grow into the youth of tomorrow and become the leaders of future generations. The greatest national wealth of any country is its human capital — particularly its youth.
Among the foundation’s core programs is a focus on supporting immigrant children and teenagers by providing them with identity-based education. The goal is to help them become familiar with their language, culture, and homeland from an early age, preventing identity conflict upon potential return to their country of origin.
Since 2018, the foundation has aired a dedicated children's program called "Rowshank" through Radio Kabul 1354, focusing on education, identity, and cultural awareness.
