Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Nadia Murad to Unveil Statue With Justice for Lai Dai Han
Nadia Murad, 2018 Nobel Peace Prize Laureate, said:
Jack Straw , former UK foreign secretary and international ambassador for JLDH, said:
The "Lai Dai Han" are the tens of thousands of children of Vietnamese women that were allegedly raped by South Korean soldiers during the Vietnam War. Between 1964 and 1973, some 320,000 South Korean soldiers were deployed to Vietnam to fight alongside the United States .
Justice for Lai Dai Han gives a voice to the victims and their children and campaigns for South Korea to recognise and investigate the allegations of widespread rape and sexual violence.
Justice for Lai Dai Han works with policy makers, writers and artists to ensure this injustice is recognised, alongside fundraising efforts on behalf of the Lai Dai Han and their families.
Justice for Lai Dai Han's work seeks to raise public awareness, to allow political and community leaders to connect with the victims of sexual violence to understand their suffering first hand, and to create public art as a permanent reminder of the Lai Dai Han.
