Cambodia is still suffering from three decades of war that left it heavily contaminated by landmines and unexploded weapons. Mom, now 22 years old, was terribly injured as a young girl when she stood on a landmine whilst feeding the family's pigs. The explosion tore off her right leg.
Mom was fitted with an artificial limb and received rehabilitation at a Handicap International centre in Kompong Cham, Cambodia. She has worked with us ever since, to raise awareness about the dangers of landmines and to share her experience of this life-changing event.
