Life: A mason and a mountaineer AM00000090000005531 7, 2008

A group of ordinary Afghans from a remote area of that war-torn nation set out with a dream — to scale the country’s tallest peak in the name of peace. Aunohita Mojumdar tracks their epic journey all the way to the top
It all started over a cup of tea, as things do in Afghanistan. Malang, a cook in the Aga Khan office had a simple question: “Why not go up Noshaq?” And there it was. A straightforward question. The question ‘why not’ probably had many logical and sensible answers: because Afghanistan was a country in conflict; because Afghans had no tradition of mountaineering in the last three decades; because there was no money to back such an impossible dream. In the end, the answer to the question lay in the question itself: “Why not?” And four ordinary Afghans from the Wakhi community in the remote Wakhan corridor set off to climb their country’s highest mountain, Noshaq. On July 19, they became the first Afghan team to reach the top, and Noshaq now proudly flies the Afghan colours, planted there by Malang the cook and Amruddin, a Wakhi farmer.

The majestic mountains of north east Afghanistan PM00000010000003928 7, 2008

Welcome, Mountain Unity is a non-profit organisation which promotes mountain tourism
in NE Afghanistan.
The majestic mountains of north east Afghanistan, have kept the local people safe from
invasion since the days before Alexander the Great. However life in this remote province is
especially hard for its inhabitants. Maternal mortality rates are one of the highest in the
world, and many children die before the age of five due to the extreme poverty. By
co-ordinating and publicising mountain tourism, Mountain Unity aims to provide
sustainable livelihoods for the inhabitants.

The United Nations Volunteers (UNV) programme is the UN organization that contributes to peace and development through volunteerism worldwide.
Volunteerism is a powerful means of engaging people in tackling development challenges, and it can transform the pace and nature of development. Volunteerism benefits both society at large and the individual volunteer by strengthening trust, solidarity and reciprocity among citizens, and by purposefully creating opportunities for participation.
UNV contributes to peace and development by advocating for recognition of volunteers, working with partners to integrate volunteerism into development programming, and mobilizing an increasing number and diversity of volunteers, including experienced UNV volunteers, throughout the world. UNV embraces volunteerism as universal and inclusive, and recognizes volunteerism in its diversity as well as the values that sustain it: free will, commitment, engagement and solidarity. more detail at source:
