Rescuing the Taliban鈥檚 youngest recruits

Outlook Inspirations nominee Dr Feriha Peracha is a clinical psychologist and director of a project in Pakistan which aims to rehabilitate some of these children and teenagers. She has the difficult task of completely changing the perspectives of troubled youngsters, who've been told that suicide bombing is a direct route to heaven.
