The classroom is a sacred space. It may look different around the globe, but the classroom is a place where students come to learn, make friends, and get inspired. It can also be a haven, a shelter, and a place to eat. Here are six classrooms from around the world, from Nepal to New York.

1. Kathmandu, Nepal.

2. Sarju, India

3. Nairobi, Kenya

4. Crimea, Ukraine

5. Meliandou, Guinea

6. New York City, United States
