The State Department is spending more than $1 million of taxpayer dollars on a cartoon that promotes “living a healthy, drug-free lifestyle” and “women’s empowerment” for kids in Pakistan.

The division of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) issued a grant for a two-season TV show that would “promote security and stability” in Pakistan.

“INL would like to develop a superhero animated cartoon series aimed at an older target audience (ages 14-25),” according to the grant announcement. “This series would inform, educate, and positively influence Pakistani youth in an entertaining and engaging manner.”

“The series will incorporate social messaging that reinforces INL goals, such as counternarcotics, gender equality, the role of police in civil society, a fair criminal justice system, anti-corruption, religious tolerance, and other topics that promote security and stability in civil society,” the agency said.

“The goal of each episode is to inform, educate, and positively influence Pakistani youth about the role and responsibilities of the police and criminal justice system,” according to documents accompanying the grant announcement.

Some of the topics for the upcoming episodes include: “The promotion of non-violence in conflicts,” “women’s empowerment,” “the importance of living a healthy, drug-free lifestyle,” and “inter-faith peace and religious tolerance.”

The mission of the State Departments’ INL division is to “minimize the impact of international crime and illegal drugs on the United States, its citizens, and partner nations by providing effective foreign assistance and fostering global cooperation.”
