In Search of My Afghanistan: A Journey of Discovery and Renewal in a Troubled Land

Najiba Kabuli was born in Kabul, Afghanistan, in 1981. She grew up in a country that was ravaged by war and conflict. Her father was a doctor who worked tirelessly to help the sick and wounded.

When Najiba was ten years old, the Taliban took control of Afghanistan. The Taliban imposed a strict interpretation of Islamic law, which severely restricted the rights of women and girls. Najiba was forced to stop going to school and was forbidden from leaving her home without a male escort. She lived in fear of being beaten or even killed by the Taliban.
