Resuits va o> THE CIVIL war in Afghanistan effected women and children the most and =. helping them recover is Terrace aid worker Heather Bellamy. She's lived in “Kabul, the capital of Afghanistan, since last year after a decade of working with Afghan. refugees in Pakistan. Bellamy spoke about her work here Oct. 7 Local helps women and children in Kabul KABUL IS a beautiful city, surrounded by three hills, But the capital of Afghanistan is also a dangerous place and a place where everyday living is hard, says Heather Bellamy, an aid worker from Terrace who “has lived in Kabul since last year. “Kabul was 70 per cent destroyed as far as housing,” Bellamy told an audi- ence at the R.E.M. Lee Theatre Oct. 7. “People are living on top of one another.” “The destruction took place during the course. of a long civil war, culminating in: “the 1990s ‘by the reign of the Taliban “which enforced an extreme form of Isla- mic law. ““Women were to be seen and not heard. ‘They could get beaten for wearing “colourful ‘sucks, for wearing shoes that make noise,” said Bellamy. The -situation changed ‘in: late 2001 - when the United States and other coun- _ ‘tries invaded Afghanistan, rousting the ‘Taliban from the central government: . But the Taliban remain an- influence in ‘the yural areas and the central govern- _-ment-has-yet to -make:a major influence “outside of “populated cities. “The poor eat bread and onions, bread sand potatoes, only the rich can afford to t,”. Bellamy said of living-conditions.. ms vepeople cook on a gas bottle. Wood ‘has been stripped from buildings for fuel. Everyday life. is hard,” she said. "¥et there are signs of a turn around S with people returning and construction going on in Kabul. “Bellamy has spent the better part of the last decade working with Afghanistan ‘refugees in Pakistan, primarily with women and children. After the American “Operation Endur- ing Freedom” in late 2001, Bellamy moved to Kabul where she and another Canadian aid worker began planning the revival of a garden which was once a place where women and children could relax and socialize. “There’s a saying, ‘a broken hand can work, a broken heart cannot,’” said Bel- lamy. She and the other aid worker received grants from various foreign aid agencies, hired and trained 12 women to bring back the garden and enlisted the help of a Kabul university professor, “Tt was a wasteland. The soil we were stepping on would blow away in dust as we walked,” Bellamy,.said, referring..to_ the garden at the begitthing. of the project. They planted 550 trees and” bushes and, just as important, provided women with an income, self respect and. job” skills. “There’s an incredible strength and beauly in them,” said Bellamy of the women they hired. “There’s a new sense of companionship.” Bellamy is now in the middle of a lar- ger and move ambitious project involving a tract of land just north of Kabul, With the help of aid agencies, the goal is to ‘provide housing for widows and orphans and to establish market gardens, provi- ding women work and income from the sale of produce and vegetables. While: Bellamy’s project work is fi- nanced by aid agencies, her personal ex- - penses are covered by donations and through Samaritan’s Purse. She's now on a speaking tour of North America and will return to Afghanistan early. next year. FREE FOOT CARE CLINIC Why suffer needlessly!
