UN Volunteers in Afghanistan

	Name: John Hamilton Age: 42 Country: Sierra Leone Job title: Administration / Finance Duty station: Kunduz Agency: UNDP/ ANBP Time in Afghanistan: The past eight months The reason why I became a UNV is because I was working for UNAMSIL in my country as peacekeeper and I wanted to continue with a peacekeeping operation with the United Nations. I joined the UNV because I wanted to do peace building in a country affected by war and I wanted to help the development of the nation. Also, there was so much senselessness in my country for ten years, but due to the effort of UNV and permanent staff members of the UN we (Sierra Leoneans) are enjoying peace and economic development now.
	Name: Andrew Stanley Colway Age: 33 Country: Sierra Leone Job title: Finance Officer Duty station: Kabul Agency: UNAMA Time in Afghanistan: Since December 2004 UNVs in Afghanistan have played an indispensable role in the agencies and especially during the past two elections.
	Name: Malika Iskandari Age: 28 Country: Tajikistan Job title: Programme Officer Duty station: Gardez Agency: WFP Time in Afghanistan: One month Being a UNV I hope to help the poor and vulnerable and make their life better.
	Name: Kobby M. Mensah Age: 32 Country: Ghana Job title: Programme Officer Duty station: Badakhshan, Faizabad Agency: WFP Time in Afghanistan: For the past 27 months Working with WFP in the remote Badakhshan province and feeding food to insecure people is a lifetime challenge and I am glad to see the difference I have made in peoples’ lives working as a volunteer.
