Afghan notebook: First timers

One of the hallmarks of the Afghan presidential election has been the prominent role of young voters and activists.

First-time voters boosted the turnout and many young people acted as election observers.

To capture what matters to first-time voters, the BBC organised a TV debate with more than 50 young Afghans in the Kabul studios of its partner station, 1TV.

BBC Persian TV's Najieh Ghulami was the co-host.
