15 images of landmine victims..."Myanmar, or Burma, is home to one of the world's longest running civil wars. Conflict has occurred since the country gained independence in 1947.
Mine warfare has been a feature of the conflict throughout that time.
Mines are thought to be used by all parties to the conflict. No one knows how many people have been killed or maimed by mines.
This photo exhibit provides a glimpse into the lives of a few of those who survived their mine injury and now live tenuous lives near the border with Thailand..."

This exhibition has been co-sponsored by DanChurchAid (DCA) and the International Campaign to Ban Landmines (ICBL)
