Concert For A Landmine-Free World
"There
will never be peace in a country like Cambodia or Angola or
Afghanistan as long as there are landmines. I do think people
are compassionate and want to do the right thing, but they don't
know how."

For A Cause. Six Grammy Award winners singing together on-stage.
Led by Bobby Muller's Vietnam Veterans
of America Foundation, we have chronicled the extraordinary
efforts of artists Emmylou Harris, Nanci Griffith, Bruce Cockburn,
Steve Earle, Mary Chapin Carpenter and John Prine as they sing out
to change the world.
We
traveled to Cambodia with Mary Chapin Carpenter to meet the people most affected by landmines. Experts estimate
that nearly 10 million mines remain in the ground in Cambodia, a
country of 8 million people.
The
concert brings attention to the Campaign for a Landmine Free World.
The Campaign addresses removal of landmines worldwide.
