The Kahani Project Podcast

The Kahani (Hindi word for Story) Project aims to bring together storytellers from across the world who want to set stories free. We believe that listening to stories is a fundamental right of every child and captured in digital audio format stories can be made more accessible and available to children of all age groups, nationalities and disabilities. Our website (www.thekahaniproject.org) features audio stories recorded by volunteers who have a passion for storytelling and a little time on their hand. Anyone can contribute a story here and you can begin begin now. Sign-Up here - http://thekahaniproject.org/be-a-storyteller/ and we will walk you through the steps that will get you started with recording and uploading your digital audio stories.

The hero of Holland (Hindi)

September 2, 2023 • 8 mins
Holland is a country where much of the land lies below sea level. Only great walls called dikes keep the North Sea from rushing in and flooding the land. For centuries the people of Holland have worked to keep the walls strong so that their country will be safe and dry. Even the little children know the dikes must be watched every moment, and that a hole no larger than your finger can be a very dangerous thing.
