Laos is the most heavily bombed country per capita in history. Over 2 million tons of munitions were dropped on Laos during the Vietnam conflict, despite Laos not being part of the war. Over 30 percent of those munitions failed to detonate and remain hidden underground throughout Laos.
Surviving the Peace: Laos takes an intimate look at the lives of those affected by these unexploded bombs and profiles the dangerous, yet life saving work that MAG, staffed by Laos nationals, has undertaken in the country.
MAG (Mines Advisory Group) is an international organization that works to save lives and build futures through the destruction of weapons in conflict affected countries. Since 1989, MAG has worked in over 35 countries and in 1997 was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. MAG works closely with at-risk communities to make their lives safer by clearing land mines and bombs, in turn providing safe access to water, shelter, food, farm land and emergency aid.
