Bamboo-zled!

Ragaytung Primary School, Bhutan
*Bhutan* Year 2013

In 2013, 15-year-old Anita and her friends at Ragaytung Primary School, Bhutan, were concerned about the steep and slippery commute to school where one could risk falling down the hill. They rallied their parents and the community to build a bamboo fence along the road and cleaned up the path for further safety.
