In August 1997, Princess Diana joined Landmine Survivors Network in Bosnia. Her trip with LSN did a spectacular job of drawing attention to the plight of landmine victims at a crucial juncture in the debate on a global landmine ban. Her itinerary included private visits to the homes of landmine victims and meetings with local disability groups and rehabilitation specialists.
Tragically, this was the last working week of her life. Landmine Survivors Network associates worldwide will not benefit from her compassion and unique understanding that survivors helping survivors restores dignity and strengthens each individual's will to survive.
“The victims I met and their senselessly inflicted injuries have stiffened my resolve to ensure that their needs for care and support are not overlooked...”
- Princess Diana, in a letter to Jerry White of LSN
