The magazine strives for an equality of the right to knowledge across cultures, generations and genders. Parvaz is a window on the world for children who have grown up in war and poverty. By introducing them to other cultures, ways of life and beliefs, it promotes tolerance. The adults of tomorrow will thus communicate with mutual respect and understanding- instead of violence and fear. The content of Parvaz Afghanistan is designed and produced in Kabul by an all Afghan team of journalists, writers, illustrators and photographers who were trained at Aina. Parvaz covers a wide variety of subjects: sciences, geography, music, nature, sports, games, Afghan traditions, history, religion, technology, folk tales and stories. Through text, illustrations, photos, exploded diagrams and educational cartoons, Parvaz helps children develop their imagination, their passion for reading, and their ability to observe and analyse. Parvaz is distributed through the networks of most of the national and international organizations that work with children and within education in Afghanistan, including the Ministry of Education. Each edition of 40,000 copies is read and shared by 500,000 children all over Afghanistan. Thirteen issues have been produced and distributed in Afghanistan. A version of Parvaz - called Yuti - was launched in Sri Lanka in response to the devastation of the tsunami in 2006.
