Highlighting the efforts made by the school to ensure an inclusive learning environment, the ambassador said it was inspiring to see a beautifully designed space for learning and recreation.

The construction of the Peace Monument and the celebration of September as the 'Month of Peace and Tolerance' make this municipality a model that I hope will be followed by communities from all over state", said the ambassador.
