In Angola, CARE's Consolidated Mine Program teaches adults and children to identify and avoid mines in their daily lives. But removing mines is only one step toward recovering from conflict. CARE also helps mitigate conflicts and rebuild societies, improving the chances for peace and ending dependency on outside aid as quickly as possible. In Angola, CARE helps ex-combatants integrate back into society and find more peaceful ways to make a living. In Mozambique, CARE helps rebuild war-damaged roads, bridges and agricultural extension systems.
CARE also helps farmers produce and market cooking oil.
The program improves food security, agricultural income and nutrition in one of Mozambique's hardest hit regions.
