War is Not Over When it's Over by Ann Jones

In 2007, the International Rescue Committee (IRC),which brings relief to countries in the wake of war, wanted to understand what really happened to women, in post-conflict zones. Answers came through the point and click of a digital camera. On behalf of the IRC, Ann Jones spent two years travelling through Africa, East Asia, and the Middle East, lending cameras to women who had no other means of telling the world what war had done to their lives. Their photographs are a chronicle of the consequences of modern warfare for the most vulnerable. Animated by the voices of brave and resourceful women, "War Is Not Over When It's Over" is a powerful dispatch from the ruins.
