Last year I have met Jackie and we shared ideas on Sudan and Afghanistan.
Girls going to school, women empowerment, it is important for all kinds of reasons...
I hope her death can and will encourage us to continue this difficult struggle.
But right now I just feel the loss. For her, for her husband and for her family. For Afghanistan, a country suffering from violence for so long. For what sake? I truly hope that Jackie and her family can find peace with this tragic loss!
