"I wish that more people could see the Afghanistan that I am seeing. This is such a contrast to the version of this country shown in the Western media: images of a country filled with ruthless terrorists, corrupt leaders and helpless victims. Instead, here is a room filled with public servants enthusiastic about learning all they can to do their best for their country and for the people they serve" by Marianne Elliott in 'Zen under Fire'.
Marianne's bold and compassionate writing depicts the multifaceted nature of the conflict in Afghanistan, including its human heart. Her courageous battle to find her inner peace among the chaos is inspiring! A must-read for young humanitarians/ development practitioners.
