Gretta in Vietnam

I am an Advocacy Project Peace Fellow spending the summer in Dong Hoi City, Vietnam. I will be working with Survivor Corps' partner organization LSN-V. LSN-V works with landmine survivors providing peer support, building capacity and advocating for human rights. I will be posting thoughts, pictures, ideas and ramblings on here. Please comment and respond if you are inspired to do so!

All of the survivors I have met with since being in Vietnam have touched on the need for sustainable and inclusive employment.  One of the primary programmatic elements of LSN-V and Survivor Corps’ work is Economic Opportunity for survivors.  Over the past few weeks I met with some of the business groups operating in Quang Binh province.  The video above explains more about the awesome work these groups are doing and the substantial impact they are having on the lives of survivors and their communities as a whole.

**Please note: The video quality diminished quite a bit when I posted this on YouTube.  I am trying to resolve this issue and will hopefully have a higher-quality version soon.  Thanks for your patience.
