Afghanistan: ‘Grandpa’ Akbar Was a Legend

Last week, we lost Koko Akbar, gardener at our Kabul hospital. He had been working for EMERGENCY since April 2001.

This is how they try to forget the pain of the wounds caused by a war that keeps making so much noise outside.

Nadim is at the Kabul Surgical Centre, accompanied by his father.

The cardiologist who visited included Chantal among the patients that may require surgery at the Salam Centre.

EMERGENCY gives hope to disabled people to return back into society, with a combination of high quality of prostheses and economic independence.

In May 2016, violent clashes in the area had forced the First Aid Post to close

We were honoured to receive the World Health Organization (WHO) Director-General Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus at the Salam Centre

Since 2007, EMERGENCY has provided life-saving cardiac surgery for over 7,500 patients at the state-of-the-art Salam Centre in Khartoum, Sudan

we want to share the story of Etienne, who could easily be our father or brother,

Because “Only the practice of peace can inspire belief in peace.”
