IRAQ: On the Road to Recovery By Way Of Amends

BlogBy Center for Civilians in ConflictMay 5, 2010

Posted By Shelly Mention “war” or “armed conflict,” and many people scroll through mental images of soldiers engaged in combat or of pock-marked villages halfway across the world. But these images are just a fraction of that  element. War’s impact doesn’t end when the bullets and bombs stop.  Its effects stretch beyond the fighting and…

COLOMBIA: Victims: Forgotten in the Colombian Conflict

BlogBy Center for Civilians in ConflictApril 30, 2010

Posted by: Angelica Zamora “One dies when he’s forgotten.” This is a verse written by Colombian poet Manuel Mejía Vallejo, and today it seems to be a reality regarding the tragedy of victims in Colombia. This week, the Annual Report of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) warned that armed conflict in this…

PAKISTAN: Victims Continue to Struggle in Jalozai

BlogBy Center for Civilians in ConflictMarch 26, 2010

“How much could a wheelchair cost?”  Rubina exclaimed.  “Seven hundred rupees?”  She took 500 rupees, about $7, from her wallet and turned back to Mahia’s tent to give it to her family. In 2008, while in her home in Bajaur Agency, shrapnel from tank or artillery shelling struck Mahia in the head, paralyzing her and…

PAKISTAN: Internally Displaced in Northwest Pakistan

BlogBy Center for Civilians in ConflictDecember 21, 2009

By Chris I’m in Jalozai camp in northwest Pakistan.  Built on a barren, dusty plain, it is a massive tent city with over 80,000 displaced persons.  Residents of Jalozi have little or no access to employment.  They are completely dependent on UN agencies and NGOs for food, water, and other essentials. Plastic sheeting around ‘blocks’…

GUEST BLOG: A View of War Victims From Gardez, Afghanistan

BlogBy Center for Civilians in ConflictDecember 17, 2009

Posted by Erica G from Kabul I’ve been in Gardez the last week — a small provincial capitol about two hours south of Kabul. Security is slightly better than this time last year, when the community was still reeling from nightly airstrikes in districts just outside of the city. But reports of targeting and assassination…

PAKISTAN: Internally displaced in Islamabad

BlogBy Center for Civilians in ConflictDecember 4, 2009

By Chris Life is difficult for internally displaced persons (IDPs) in Tarnol—a slum outside of Islamabad.  It is a dusty, desolate place on the outskirts of the city.  Its streets are narrow and unpaved, lined with cramped homes, many held together by earthen bricks and animal dung.  Most of the displaced are crowded into relatives’…

Seated around the horseshoe-shaped table were Ambassadors, Foreign Ministers, and high-level UN officials who had come from near and far to speak about the…
