Regardless of your views on the war in Afghanistan, any project to improve the lives of Afghan civilians has to be welcomed.
Durham University is raising money to offer scholarships to female Kabul University students who wish to study their postgraduate degrees at England's third oldest university.
Between five and ten women will benefit from the scholarships each year, with the first Afghan students arriving for the 2010-11 academic year.
The fund is still £200,000 off its minimum target, and any donations will be very much appreciated.
Contact tim.mcinnisATdurham.ac.uk (replace AT with @) to contribute. Durham University says: "No gift is too small to be incredibly meaningful."

Interestingly, someone from Pakistan searched for the phrase "I have been visiting various blogs for my Dissertation writing research. I have found your blog to be quite useful. Keep updating your blog", and found this page.
Either someone who also had it posted on their blog or the spammer. They used a proxy server.
