Crisis in Kosovo story Show Must Go On Many Worlds of Nozipo Maraire Scope

 

A ‘Crisis of the Spirit’ in Kosovo
By Emine Alijaj, Margaret Bourdeaux, Sharon Chekijian, Aaron Covey, Seth Goldbarg, Vivian Lombillo, Pamela Perry and Anya Szeglin

As ethnic Albanians fled Kosovo by the hundreds of thousands this spring, eight Yale volunteers traveled to neighboring Macedonia with the international relief organization Doctors of the World. In the refugee camp at Senekos, they triaged new arrivals, surveyed the camp population’s medical and nutritional needs, organized youth programs and comforted thousands displaced from their homes.

By John Curtis

The Many Worlds
of Nozipo Maraire

By Cathy Shufro

When Nozipo Maraire returns to Zimbabwe next year, she will be one of seven neurosurgeons in a nation of 11 million people and quite possibly the first black female neurosurgeon on the African continent. She goes home after seven years of training at Yale and one critically acclaimed novel.
