Generation 9/11: Ten Years On ~ Almiraat

Today, the British council is launching a video campaign called "Generation 9/11." The project is seeking to capture the views of people online in an effort to use the anniversary of the attacks of 9/11 to move the dialogue on Muslim – Non-Muslim relations forward.

The first batch of videos was sent from contributors in the U.S., Pakistan, Egypt, Morocco and Hungary:
