Earlier this month a small group of women were part of the over 1,600 delegates gathered for a jirga in Afghanistan. "The jirga is a traditional gathering in which Afghan leaders try to solve problems facing the country. This one focuses on how to end nearly nine years of war with the Taliban."
Women, War & Peace producer Claudia Rizzi was in Afghanistan to follow the women who fought hard for months in order to be included in the process. You can listen to a podcast about her observations at the jirgia by clicking here >>
Their story is one one of the ones being told by Women War & Peace, the latest project from Pray the Devil Back to Hell Producer Abigail E. Disney and Director Gini Reticker. The five part series, which will air on PBS WIDE ANGLE will mark the US broadcast premiere for Pray the Devil Back to Hell
