IN SHORT

After losing her son to a road accident, Zeina Kassem resolved to make this tragedy count. Through Roads for Life, she provides medical personnel training in trauma response, lobbies for improved legislation, and campaigns for better road safety. “I wish people learn to value their life and take better care. I wish we can reduce the death toll to zero,” she says. “I want to reach the point where I can say I am done, that my mission is finished.”
