For 10 years, fear of the presence of landmines on his land prevented Justiniano, a farmer in the Nasa indigenous community in Colombia’s Inzá municipality, from expanding his coffee plantation.
Humanity & Inclusion’s deminers spent five months inspecting and clearing explosives from Justiniano’s farm. Now, Justiniano can grow more coffee to support his family.
