Back to School

Wide Angle:

In 2003 Wide Angle profiled seven children in seven countries-Afghanistan, Benin, Brazil, India, Japan, Kenya, and Romania-as they started their first year of school.

With over 100 million children around the globe out of school, this 90-minute special puts a human face on an issue with profound consequences for global development.
