This
picture of Afghan women at a Médecins du Monde facility in
Afghanistan was part of "Afghan Women: Lifting the Veil" ("Lever le
voile sur les femmes afghans"), an exhibition of 27 photographs
that ran at the Maison Française on campus April 11-20. The
seven photographers (many French journalists) who contributed to
the exhibit, which was organized by Médecins du Monde and the
European Community Humanitarian Aid Office, captured daily life
among Afghan women, and portrayed those who are working to expand
Afghan women's social and political opportunities.
