Impact of Comics for Peace
The Comics for Peace program was launched in Pakistan in 2018. Over 2000 students in 9 universities across the country participated in the CFP project through panel discussions, workshops and on campus awareness sessions. 20 fellows (an equal mix of male and female students from all parts of the country, representing its unique religious and ethnic makeup) were recruited for the first fellowship program to develop 5 unique and independent stories developed as comic books that emphasized the drivers of radicalization in Pakistan. The stories were well received by students at Universities in the country.

80% of the students who read the comics found the content to be relevant to them.

The program proved to be an effective way of spreading awareness through a medium that young people enjoy; 56% of all students agreed that the comic book made them more aware of an issue that they were unaware of before.

74% of all students either agreed or strongly agreed with the statement that the comic book helped them learn more about an issue. Nearly all the students correctly identified the issues that each story was espousing.
