Last week, the South Korean Engineering contingent in Bor opened a pastry and vegetable shop, the Hanbit Market, as part of its vocational training centre. The initiative is part of the contingent’s efforts to empower trainees by teaching them trading and customer relations skills.

In Jonglei, 30 SPLA officers and 10 other participants from line state ministries and organized armed forces attended a two- day child protection workshop in Bor, raising their awareness about the rights of children.

Unnecessarily cute sniffer dogs, interactive demonstrations of mine action work, an exuberant photo exhibition, a Japanese cultural performance and the launch of a catchy mine awareness song.
