Devi is Everywhere: Female UN PeaceKeepers in Liberia

[Guest guest]

Liberia's civil war is over, but the legacy

of violence against women persists.

A unit of 105 female U.N. peacekeepers,

drawn from India's central police force,

was brought into the country to help

solve the problem. Reporter Daniele

Anastasion spent time with the unit

to see what progress they've made.
