On November 18th, 2010, the Yale World Fellows Program and the Yale Office of the Secretary hosted a conversation with Zainab Salbi, founder and CEO of Women for Women International, a group dedicated to helping women survivors of war rebuild their lives. As a survivor of war herself, Ms. Salbi founded Women for Women International in response to the rape and concentration camps in Bosnia in 1993. Since then, the organization has helped more than 270,000 women in eight conflict and post-conflict areas from Congo and Rwanda to Afghanistan and her native country, Iraq.
