Living convictions - Dr Ione in the Central African Republic (Part III)

In 1968, Dr Ione, then a young medical student from Italy, came to the newly independent Central African Republic to help run a hospital in the north. Since then, she has spent thirty-four years in the country, living through rebellions, mutinies, intermittent progress, and desperation.

In the third part of our interview series, Dr Ione explains how insecurity and violence have destroyed the progress of decades of hard work. Thirty years after she began working in the country, Dr Ione and her Central African colleagues had to start all over again.
