Reviving the Dead Areas The war ended nearly 40 years ago but Quang Binh and Quang Tri Provinces and many other areas in Vietnam are still affected by the heavy consequences caused by bombs and mines left over from the war. As a result, many domestic and international organizations have carried out campaigns on detecting and clearing bombs and mines to revive the “dead areas”.
For a Vietnam free from mine accidents Some children from Binh Dinh know exactly how to avoid mine and bomb accidents. Others do not. Since the end of the war in Viet Nam, and according to Government estimates, more than 40,000people have been victims of the explosives left behind over the last three decades[i]. Today, the youth is determined to be the first generation to break with the deadly legacy of war. To do that, UNDP supports them in finding creative ways to convey mine risk messages, to protect themselves, their families and other children.
