Remarkable and beautiful. "Girls First and No School-No Skate" are powerful agents for change. I needed this positive hit to start my day. Thank you for showing me potential where it otherwise would be hard to see.

To see the children interacting and going past their fears and the cultural norms - their confidence and wisdom guiding their elders...... New Children of The Earth brining in the shift, walking through the changes, illuminating the Love........ A True gift for the Heart of All

It's simplicity and positive effect on so many social and academic levels. The developing world could seriously benefit from skateboard diplomacy.

This is a wonderful snippet of this village's agreement with the the structure of Girls First and no School, no skating--simple, yet powerful! To see the self esteem of the children and young lady skating through 'what feels like clouds' and the purpose and happiness of these kids were absolutely beautiful!

I was inspired to learn that a German woman would invest her heart, soul, mind, time and financial resources into this unknown community. I'm inspired to know that there are people who are making big differences quietly. I love seeing the smiles on the faces of these kids, that girls go first, and that the kids are going to school. I also love that the dads are drinking less.

A very short but such a powerful video. Ulrike Reinhard has most definitely brought a smile to the faces of so many children. She must feel so rewarded. I would love to be able to do something too, to make even a small difference to the lives of these children. Can I at at least contribute some money so it may help in some way , Ulrike ?

What an innovative idea. And to provide the kids with something they could all participate in. The gender equality efforts were very simple, clever and they worked! It was a great way to dismantle any thoughts of bullying the girls.

Really pretty astonishing how something so apparently simple, although requiring a lot of work, could have such a broadly transformative effect. Great to see this!
