Cambodia Today: life in the land of Killing Fields.
The trial against the leaders of Pol Pot’s regime, the dictator who exterminated 20 per cent of his people between 1975 and 1979, has recently started.But how heavy is the burden of past for Cambodians? Young people fear criminality more than yesterday’s phantoms. And the majority of Khmer people hardly survive in the impoverished countryside.

Congo – The African forest, an endangered heritage.
As a consequence of the Rwandan genocide, several wars occurred in DR Congo since 1994. A great mass of people was forced to find refuge in the forest. To survive they had no other option as cutting trees for firewood and eating bushmeat. Paradoxically it was war that protected forest from lumbering. When a semblance of peace came back, forestry started again, worse then before, and people continues to cut tree for their needs.
