History. Healing. Hope. These are the three pillars of our partners at Legacies of War , the leading U.S.-based educational and advocacy organization working to address the impact of conflict in Laos during the Vietnam War-era, including removal of unexploded ordnance (UXO). They raise awareness about the history of the Vietnam War-era bombing of Laos, provide space for healing the wounds of war, and create greater hope for a future of peace.
HOPE is the starting point for any endeavor. It is fuel for the work.
