Akanksha Arora: The 34-year-old bidding to be the next UN chief
Al Jazeera
Having worked at the UN for just four years, Arora now wants to shake it up.
Akanksha Arora was fighting for survival in the emergency room after a traffic accident when she realised, in the face of death, what life is. Arora said she was very lucky there was no damage to her internal organs – she was left with a broken leg and plenty of bruises – after she was hit by a taxi but the potentially fatal accident made her realise she had to make some drastic changes in her life. “God saved me for a reason. I asked myself: What have I done for the world?” Arora told Al Jazeera, adding it was then that she realised she had to make a difference.More Related News
