Sakena Yacoobi was born in Afghanistan and educated in the United States. She started working with the International Rescue Committee (IRC) in Pakistan during the mid-1990s. "When you see the joy and excitement in the students' faces, when you see them sitting on dirt floors, under trees, and in dark basements-anywhere to get an education, you forget all your troubles," Yacoobi has said of her work.
