Summary: A global literary magazine that teaches tolerance and mutual understanding.
Description:
An international literary magazine that publishes art, poetry, and prose created by secondary school students.

Currently, A Vision is coordinated by students and teachers in the Philippines, Suriname, Lithuania, and Bangladesh.
