Gynaecologist and Outlook Inspirations nominee Dr Marzia Salam Yaftali has for nearly two years been running the last-standing, public hospital in the Afghan city of Kunduz. It's a city that has long been dangerous, but the stakes were especially high in 2015 when the Taliban attempted to recapture it. Marzia appeared on Outlook on 23rd August 2017.
