Barb,

I am so tempted! But earthquake relief and
reconstruction is keeping me busy in London and
Pakistan.

But I will pass it on to people I know who might be
interested. If EDC is looking for a really good local
partner, we have a excellent organisation, the Afghan
Women's Education Centre, based in Kabul that we have
been working with over the last 6 years. A very strong
organisation, with projects in Kabul, Pakhtiya, with
women, girls, etc.

Regards,
Ujwala
