In addition to research and education, OFAC is committed to our humanitarian mission. In 2006 and 2008, we had the opportunity to work in the rural mountain villages and fishing villages of Vietnam. We operated on victims of land mines, childhood deformities, and polio.

Until recently, there were more land mines in Vietnam than anywhere else.
