HALO has always employed women from war-torn countries to clear their own communities. But how do bombs and conflict affect women differently? And how does a job as a deminer empower women in some of the traditional societies where HALO works?  JJ talks to campaigner Camilla Thurlow about ​her experience working alongside HALO female deminers in Cambodia and Zimbabwe, as well as her time with another organisation in Afghanistan, while  Noku Masiyanise from HALO Zimbabwe ​talks about the challenges faced by rural women in her country and how HALO is providing unique opportunities for them - and how baby boxes and childcare have a role ​in helping women play a role in making their country safe.  Hosted on Acast.
