Result of the Painting Competition for 9th Indo-Pak Peace Calendar

The Indo-Pak Peace calendar is an annual initiative of Aaghaz-e-Dosti. It brings together beautiful artistic expressions of the youth – the leaders of tomorrow – and inspiring words of those who have been actively engaged in nurturing a more prosperous subcontinent. The calendar aims to work as an everyday reminder of the similarities among people across the barbed wires– in habit, struggle, and the desire for peace.

This is our ninth calendar. Like every year, we received thought-provoking expressions from students of several cities in India and Pakistan. And like every year, it was a challenge to select only twelve paintings, as we firmly believe that each and every expression is precious. However, in addition to these 12 paintings, we also present here the 12 runner-up paintings.
