About this listen

 Dr. Vjosa Dobruna, one of this year's recipients of the Jonathan Mann Award for Global Health and Human Rights, on this edition of Fresh Air. Dobruna's being recognized for her work as founder of the Pristina Center for the Protection of Women and Children, which treats those victimized by rape, torture, or psychological trauma. Dobruna is a pediatrician neurologist. During the war, she fled to Macedonia and set up work in a Macedonian refugee camp. She narrowly escaped arrest last year. Her colleague, Dr. Flora Brovina, is the other recipient of the award. But Brovina is in a Serb prison, convicted of terrorism for providing medicine and knitting wool to women who were allegedly aiding members of the Kosovo Liberation Army.
