Rehabilitation Of Disabled Miners In Lesotho
While the world's attention has been focused on the political changes in South Africa, there has been very little news on the ripple effect of these changes in neighbouring countries. In Lesotho, the result is economic dislocation caused by the laying-off of miners in South African mines. The International Labour Organization, the ILO, is helping former miners, especially those disabled by hazardous work in the mines, to be gainfully employed again. (3 sec., 22 min.)
