Experiences of survivors, their families and affected communities
A juvenile breeding pig of a pig bank project in Quang Tri Province, Viet Nam: sustainable assistance to survivors and their families can take many forms depending on the social, political and economic context, the capacities of the family or community assisted and the capacities of the organization providing that assistance.
A questionnaire will be used in a document called the Progress Review on Victim Assistance-Voices from the Ground made by Handicap International-Belgium. This document will report on the experiences and knowledge of survivors, their families and communities by looking at the achievements and challenges of the past five years of victim assistance. Your answers to the questionnaire are the most important part of the document because they will help decision-makers improve victim assistance. It will also remind them of their obligations under the Mine Ban Treaty. This document will be published all over the world in September 2009.
