Description
Abstract This paper presents the findings of a mine risk assessment undertaken in the Lao People's Democratic Republic (Lao PDR). More than thirty years after the Second Indochina War, the Lao PDR remains heavily contaminated with unexploded ordnance (UXO), the result of nine years of intense aerial bombing and sustained land battles. This UXO contamination continues to pose a threat to affected populations and while there is no nationwide UXO injury surveillance system, available statistics suggest that UXO injuries due to both voluntary and involuntary exposure to live ordnance are increasing.
