The Ground Truth Project

The Ground Truth Project is a series of interviews offering unique perspectives from Iraqis, aid workers, returning soldiers, and others who have lived, worked, or served in Iraq. The Ground Truth Project provides Americans with unparalleled access to first-hand accounts of the daily realities of life in Iraq. EPIC hopes these interviews will inspire meaningful policy change and citizen action in support of a better future for all Iraqis.
