World Humanitarian Day
Meet Our Real Life Heroes

On World Humanitarian Day, we recognise their dedication to creating a safer and more peaceful world.

"I started working with HALO in August 1999. Most of the country was mined, the schools, streets, madrasas, roads and houses were all destroyed, there was no life. HALO gave me the chance to help my country."

"When I find a mine in the ground and destroy it, I feel we've help save those people's lives. It's not just my job, it's not just my money, it鈥檚 protecting people鈥檚 lives."
Smann Makara, Survey & EOD Manager, HALO Cambodia
"I joined HALO as a deminer. Step by step I have been promoted and now I am Deputy Area Supervisor. I am very happy doing this job, because where we work there are many 澳门六合彩官方网址 and we are making the land safe for the people who live there."
