CAIRO, June 20, 2016 (Xinhua) -- A picture drawn by a student is seen in a classroom at African Hope Learning Center in Cairo, Egypt, on June 20, 2016. In the heart of Cairo's Maadi, one of the Egyptian capital's upscale districts, lies a two-story villa that is quite indistinguishable from other buildings in the neighborhood. The property used to house a family of 10, but with its bedrooms refurbished into classrooms and a small garden into a playground, it is now occupied by African Hope Learning Center (AHLC) and caters for 500 students, most of whom are refugee children from Africa. Founded in 1998, AHLC is a sponsor-backed institution dedicated to providing displaced African children in Cairo with access to primary and high schools. After a brief summer holiday, around 30 children came back to attend the center's summer school on Monday, coinciding with the United Nations' World Refugee Day. (Xinhua/Zhao Dingzhe)
