Susan, 18, voluntarily teaches the Kurdish language in one of Kurdistan’s villages. Since teaching the Kurdish language is prohibited in Iranian Kurdistan schools, many volunteers spontaneously teach people to read and write Kurdish. Most people in villages are jobless and doing Kolbari to earn a bit of money. Kurdistan, Iran, December 2012.
