Unicef Photos of the Year

Der Spiegel has posted Unicef's photographs of the year. These pictures are disturbing and humane at the same time, windows into worlds that for many of us are just headlines. These lead us beyond prayers of obligation and unfeeling acts of charity or protest. It allows our prayers, charity and protest to meet our hearts and our imagine. Thanks and congratulations to the brave photographers who visited these places of terror and found glimpses of hope and humanity.
