Laos: Reduce and Prevent Unexploded Ordinances Accidents

USAID provides assistance to improve the quality of emergency, orthopedic, rehabilitation, surgical, and medical management services for victims of unexploded ordinances (UXOs) remaining from the Indochina conflict. The program also promotes risk reduction of future accidents through outreach and education about the dangers of UXOs for children and communities. USAID also seeks to improve the quality of life of people living with disabilities from UXOs by working towards the development of effective and sustainable national policies.
