Leymah Gbowee Quotes
Most Of The Institutions That Come In To Offer Help After Disaster Don't Have The Resources To Provide Concrete Help. . . . Donor Communities Invest Billions Funding Peace Talks And Disarmament. Then They Stop. The Most Important Part Of Postwar Help Is Missing: Providing Basic Social Services To People. Not Having Those Resources Might Have Been A Reason Men Went To War In The First Place; They Crossed A Border And Joined An Armed Group Because They Didn't Have Jobs. In Liberia Right Now, There Are Hundreds Of Thousands Of Unemployed Young People, And They're Ready-made Mercenaries For Wars In West Africa. You'd Think The International Community Would Be Sensible Enough To Know They Should Work To Change This. But They Aren't.
