i read this story in the new republic a few days ago and it keeps coming back to mind. this story goes beyond the statistics, political-foreign-policy speak, and tells the story of one girl in sudan, who was married at 11 years old. in my job, i've been trained to try to find the "success stories" in international development...but these stories are important (and incredibly frightening at the same time) too.
