             Since French troops first arrived in Mali on January 11, 2013,
              photographer Joe Penney has spent all but one week of 2013
              covering the conflict. "The first three weeks were probably the
              most intense I have ever worked in my life, and at times, the
              most frustrating," Joe says in his personal account here. 50

Radical Islamist group MUJAO placed limitations on the
wearing of traditional women's headdresses during their
nine-month reign in Gao, which ended in January with the
arrival of French and Malian troops. The headdresses,
made of beads, gemstones, fabric and fake hair and
traditionally worn by elites for special occasions, were
criticised by MUJAO who said they were not Islamic
enough. Issues surrounding the treatment of women are
receiving special attention on March 8, which marks
International Women’s Day. REUTERS/Joe Penney
