GROUND-BREAKING MAG VIETNAM STAFF

Meet the newest staff at MAG Vietnam - members of the first ever international NGO team to operate in Quang Nam province.

Background research, previous assessments and information provided by the provincial military indicate that some areas of the province are heavily contaminated with unexploded ordnance (UXO).

The Community Liaison team pictured will soon start conducting household surveys to determine the locations of UXO affecting the community.

This information will be used to prioritise tasks for MAG Vietnam’s Explosive Ordnance Disposal team, which is due to start working in Quang Nam later this year.

MAG has been working in Quang Tri since 1999 and in Quang Binh since 2002. The move into Quang Nam is an exciting time for our Vietnam programme and we look forward to expanding our lifesaving work in this province.
