Vidas Minadas - Hardcover
by Gervasio Sanchez (Author)
Every year land mines claim 26,000 new victims in 64 countries. Nearly half of the people affected die before reaching the hospital. The survivors, mostly civilians, suffer horrific mutilations. A photographic collection with testimonials from land mine victims in Cambodia, Angola, Bosnia-Herzegovina, El Salvador, Afghanistan, Mozambique, and Nicaragua, this book is a tribute to all those who have suffered and to the individuals who fought for the International Campaign to Ban Land Mines, which won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1997.
Gervasio Sanchez was named UNESCO Special Peace Envoy in 1998 on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, received the Human Rights Award for Journalism in 1997, and in 1996 was presented with the Cirilo Rodriguez Award, the most prestigious award of the Spanish government to journalists working abroad as special envoys.
