Making a difference

Hector Sierra, a native of Colombia, is talking with a group of news reporters about his organization, Artists Without Borders.
One reporter asks, "What exactly is AWB?"
Sierra thinks for a moment, and then says, "I guess Artists Without Borders is a Colombian guy teaching Japanese culture to kids around the world..."

The story of Artists Without Borders begins in Tokyo in the mid-1990s.
At the time, Sierra was a graduate student in film at Nihon University.
As a student, Sierra visited Kosovo.
He wanted to make a movie about the war there.
The war made Sierra very sad.
He wanted to help the people-especially the children of the area.

Sierra returned to Japan and started Artists Without Borders.
He wanted to bring some happiness to the children of Kosovo, using art.
Three months later, Sierra was back in Kosovo with crayons, origami paper, and paint.
He started working with the children.

Since then, Artists Without Borders has visited other troubled places, including Chechnya and Afghanistan.
In each place, Sierra works with children on two main projects-drawing and origami.
With drawing, the kids can show their hopes and fears.
With origami, the children learn to make their own toys.

Sierra wants all of the projects to be fun.
But he also hopes the children learn about another culture.
This, he believes, is a first step toward world peace.
