i see my dreams when i go to university to choose my favorite carrier to be government and the dog them are running the school is not an easy task for the principal can issue a job or from every morning he makes the rounds to ensure that glasses take place without any disruptions shop. previously dedicated. 15 years of his life, the girl's education and woman as empowerment in afghanistan, he fled his country in 2017. we started with that on the bottle. i am very proud to say that some girl swift graduated have been accepted and top university in india to pursue higher education. the school sets a great example for the success of refugee children that were made on getting a home brush. the school lost its funding after the taliban to caught up gaston in 2021. but then the up gone embassy in delhi reached represents the former. busy

in columbia, a bloody civil war raged for decades. while rebels and the government have since come closer, society is still deeply divided. new projects are meant to help vague dreams often start small in neva, they start with savory, achieve at biscuits, a specialty from the region, and for the women here, a symbol for peace, they have all been touched by war. some were thought of members, some were victims of columbia's armed conflict. now they worked shoulder to shoulder. i've been in the beginning when we meet the victims for the 1st time. it's about understanding the pain that our our la life has inflicted on them in with that i get a good a, a and then their loss e lives about understanding and telling them that we are here for them. like when the fed and to acknowledge and work hand in hand if we're trying to make up one way

or the other. now what that am i made? i am so sad and vocal as a teenager and media out theda joined the father. they trained her as the nurse, she believed in the groups message of social justice. but over the years she came to support peace. she was a signatory of the 2016 peace deal, as was the father of the 2 children. but he did not live to see the changes they had hoped for. you guys will only complain yet. mad. i'm annoyed at my partner. ramiro durand was killed 7 months ago. a it anita love the idea link and he loves that. we are in these types of initiatives with it do yet. um, when it says he needs it, feel it's unclear who was responsible for amador sterile now, he's one of over 300 signatories who have been killed since the peace deal. some of those assassinations were carried out by active dissident groups. violence also continues s p and then get a yes. other arm factions and the state fight to control territory. meanwhile,

several initiatives, like the neighbor bakery are trying to help women touched by the conflict. those stigmatized by former giddy yet eyes and those who were victims cut into a yet through huge family like millions in columbia was displaced by fighting between the father and rider. tyra militaries where were recognized as victims of the armed conflict due to the disappearance or my brother and my families displacement oftentimes, although we feel like victims, we are also resilient because all we've been through apple, so we're eager to contribute to p 6. the women have begun business for their business, but little to start with the need money for new machines and workshops. their dream is to sell our t dasanya override and grow like to make money and become a success story for reconciliation. for long alumni and needs piece and it's region received back. oh good. we need to end this nightmare gig is that we don't want

more orphans. it says hillary leonard, she now get a more than my way to find out the women here have high hopes for negotiations between the government and the yellow and giddy. yes. and that columbia as a whole, can new violence in the past and focus on a peaceful future. our last journey takes us to britain on the coast of wales. a family has been living with a minimal ecological footprint for 6 years without electro city or running water. ah. oh yeah. oh is that we're good. that is where a luxury elsa and billy are collecting eggs. their father, matthew watkinson, has made his dream come true. he and his family made

a fresh start. oh, matthew gave up his job as a veterinarian. so did his wife caris. ringback ringback now they farm a small piece of land in new port wales where their property overlooks the water. oh, is a wealth of opportunities and possibilities for those with a bit of imagination to say, i want to try something different. i miss was the outlet. we would just wanted to let creativity and imagination go and turn what is just bare sheep fields into something full of life. the one concerns live from what nature provides their property is completely off the grid. instead of a washing machine, they have a makeshift hand power device,

a small windmill and solar panels provide electricity. but when it's still law cloudy, power can be in short supply. everything is improvised and everything gets recycled, even old cars. so this one we, we plot all our seeds and we start our seeds growing in there and, and then this one with, we've got a spare bedroom in so that say friends or family visit. so we started with our horse laurie. that was seemed to be the quickest way to create a habitable space. we needed a bit more space there were decided we'll get some old agricultural trailers. slot them in behind. lincoln altogether somehow cover him would. i'm this is the result is a can i complete an, a hodgepodge of things that we could find at the time. vegetables are grown in old truck tires. it's winter,

but rhubarb is sprouting from the soil. they grow fruit and vegetables without pesticides, and take care to increase file diversity on their property. they will, sorry. the wells government support sustainable projects like this one under a program called one planet development. in return, the what concerns must demonstrate they provide at least 65 percent of their food and energy themselves to earn money. they give courses for people who want to live a low impact lifestyle. they'd hope to raise honey bees, but that turned out to be more difficult than they thought. these were a big part of what we were doing up here. we're just not getting as much honey as we thought. whether that to do with climate change, i'm warm, wet winters, that we seem to be getting more austin or per bond for bees. a lot of paperwork goes into achieving and maintaining their status as eco pioneers. every year, the authorities check to make sure that the family is as self sufficient as the

rules require their building permit and the national park depends on it. and to show what your ecological footprint is you, you have to literally record everything you've spent money on. or all the food, any station res, secondhand clothes, new clothes, shoes like it just absolutely everything. hm. the what concerns were allowed to build on the coast in the national park. they receive the permit because they met strict environmental criteria. busy there on the mountain known as kindly among the locals. it said to be a magical place and some object to the watkins living there. when the application was made for the one part of element, it was no move to the issue because cunningly is held in high regard and revered locally on many people thought it was inappropriate or any form of development on

the slopes of counting. the what concerns are doing without comforts many take for granted. life in their converted trailers is rustic, especially on damp winter evenings. but they love it here and want to be an example for their children. even if some of their neighbors haven't been won over the what concerns hope that they're inspiring as many people as possible to live in harmony with nature. ah, the only way i can be on top is to create my own am a story with just a click away, the journey, the destination right. find out this documentary with
