I traveled to a mine field last week. It was an incredible experience to look out into a field, or look at a mountain and wonder how many mines were out there; to know that it would likely mean death to walk into the field, to go for a hike. Or worse, to know that a man died in this field trying to farm crops for his family. To look at a swath of land, knowing that it’s unusable by nothing but insects, small critters, and the vegetation around it, was so foreign to me, but for Cambodians a very natural fact of life, this thought was heart wrenching. 

However, through the great work of many organizations, the future is looking much brighter. It was an absolute honor to see first hand the people working every day on clearing this beautiful country from landmines and unexploded ordnances (UXOs), such as the mortar and landmine pictured above. They work so hard and diligently at this important task. This team works 6 days a week while they’re in the field because clearing even one field is incredibly time consuming.  Because they have to first cut down the bushes and overgrowth covering the 20-40-year-old mines before they can even properly look for any UXOs and landmines. It’s incredible to me that these men and women readily go into the field and cut down the overgrowth. Their jobs take such courage and bravery, they’re incredibly inspiring individuals. 

This field was formerly a Khmer Rouge base camp and they lay mines around the surrounding area in the 1980′s as they were fleeing towards the Thai border. It was around 36,000 SQ meters, and the team expected it to take them roughly 16 working days to completely demine the field. It was a truly incredible experience visiting this mine field. 

Our Safer World: Uganda

Venture6 Studio's Senior Producer, Matt Gewirtz, traveled to Uganda for our latest project - Our Safer World: Uganda. Produced for DICE Corporation, a provider of enterprise automation software for the security industry, this video showcases Matt's journey of helping communities in Uganda become safer and more secure. Watch the full-length documentary in spring 2017.

The Incredibles 2 (2018) - 7/10 - Elastigirl is chosen to become the face of a movement who is dedicated to try to gain the trust of the people so all superheroes can be legal once more. On the other hand Mr. Incredible, who has always love the action of being a superheroe, must sit down and babysit his kids and watch from the sidelines how his wife becomes famous. At the same time, a new threat rises to threat everything Elastigirl mhas worked for and turn the people against every superheroe. A movie 14 years in the making, I remember watching the first one when I was a little kid. Having a family of superheroes? That is really crazy, then having the baby to have different superpowers, I thought it couldn't get crazier. Well, wasn't the best story to have been 14 years in the making, definitely loved that starts exactly where the first one ends, but the plot was not that great,. Personally, I would have preferred to have seen something related to Syndrome. It did had a lot of comedy which it saved a lot of the movie. I won't lose my hopes to see a third one in the near future and hope it don't take another 13-14 years to make a sequel. #pixar #waltdisney #bradbird #craignelson #hollyhunter #sarahvowell #huckleberrymilner #samuelljackson #mrincredible #elastigirl #violet #dash #jackjack #jackjackvsraccoon #savingntheworld #superheroes #theincredibles2 #fightingcrime #legalizesuperheroes #saferworld #superfamily #superbaby #cookieaddiction #moviereview #movie #review https://www.instagram.com/p/BndA0oig1k2/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=sp6xeder68ky

We count down with you mam. We are proud to support this cause for the Nigerian women in coastal communities. . . @Regranned from @unyimeivyking - We are counting down. If the excitement of the women and even the baales(High Chief) of the communities that we have reached out to is anything to go by, this is going to be an impactful one. #Repost @sowgfoundation ・・・ Amb. (Mrs.). Unyime-Ivy King is a is a woman of many parts- an author, Character Mentor, humanitarian worker, publisher, and an advocate for a return to Positive family values using the social media platform actively to express her passion. Awarded a UN Eminent Ambassador of Peace under the auspices of the Intl Association of World Peace Advocates (IAWPA) in 2014, and appointed International Director, Gender Education/Advocacy by the same organisation, the Nigerian Army School of Public Relations and Information (NASPRI) also made her one of its 3 ambassadors. Her Foundation, The Save Our Women and Girls Foundation (SOW&G), a not-for-profit organisation, which was incorporated formally in late 2016 and is focused on creating social developmental awareness on issues that concern women and girls. Its focus is on training, mentoring, educating and building the capacity of women and girls in Nigeria and also raising funds to support credible NGOS that are into gender advocacy. Through the activities of the Foundation, several small scale business initiatives have been birthed. With her current initiative, Trash2Wealth, a community based project aimed at raising ‘wastepreneurs’ among women in the target communities, which is supported by FABE International Foundation, an NGO that is concerned with environmental sustainability issues, she hopes that the level of public awareness on practices that are inimical to the environment, which could result in long term health problems, asides the economic empowerment opportunities it would provide for community women, would be increased; as we know, health is wealth. #thrash2wealth #wastepreneurs #waste2wealth #wastenotwasted #saferworld @unyimeivyking @alvinator @ubongking @iniabims @aidymika @f4kidsafrica @tegaebaah @mzokunnu
