*Eve Lyman* is the Executive Director of Boston Mobilization and the director of the Democracy Center @ 45 Mt. Auburn Street. After September 11th she realized that it was time to get off the sidelines and devote her life to social change. She co-founded Afghans for Civil Society (ACS), a small

Afghan-American organization based in Kandahar, Afghanistan and served as the US Coordinator for two years. Over the course of that time, it became evident to Eve that US policy was undermining the democracy-building work ACS was doing in Afghanistan, and Eve decided to focus on making change within her own country. Eve has a deep conviction that "*we are one world*", that everything each of us does or touches, ultimately affects everyone else on this planet.
