rights watch saves children living in the foreman led mining area of sand still exposed to high levels of it that's despite the closure of the main mines and smelting bonds in the region 25 years ago a human rights watch report focuses on the town of that's north of the capital it saves children are exposed to high levels of lead ins in soil and dust around their homes schools and areas they pay in the group say's that despite clean up if it's around 76000 people still live in heavily contaminated areas it's bring in joanna naples mitchell here she's the old off that human rights watch report welcome to today. joanna so your report puts an emphasis on children why is this made exposure particularly dangerous for children. so that exposure is dangerous for children more so than adults for some good reasons 1st children's brains and

bodies are still developing 2nd children absorb $4.00 to $5.00 times as much light as adults and finally children spend much more time in the soil which is where the light is and calm where playing in the ground or putting their hands in their mouths into the mushroom likely to ingest loud. right joanne of the government of sambir has said it doesn't have the money for decontaminating this area relocation perhaps is another option why has that not happened. well 1st i should say the government says that it doesn't have enough resources to address the full scope of the problem they're making some efforts now and we hope that they will expand those efforts but in terms of relocation this is something we've asked different experts because this is also a question for us and what we were told was just physically moving some 76000 people is just an incredibly onerous undertaking and would be very challenging and also extremely expensive which seems like you know you know the project is already

very expensive just cleaning out the lead but it seems like would be even more than that. so what are you calling for as human rights watch what proposals are you suggesting as an organization we're calling on the government to come up with their comprehensive and sustainable ways to clean up the lead so that they address the lead in homes schools health centers and on roads and also at the mind that still there in convoy and also that they choose a method of clean up that actually will last but also calling for them to provide testing and treatment all affected community members with particular attention to children under 5 who are most vulnerable. and i did spend some time in that community well in in the city of kabul and at the soldiers about what you experience interaction with with the people in the community are they a way off of the situation and what did you see 1st had as a result will be implications as a because of this exposure to that people have it. ok so

convoy is a town that is full of contradictions it has a bustling city center and is is the capital of this province and at the same time about a 3rd of the population lives not affected areas but i spoke to parents about whether their children had been tested you know some parents that their children had been tested for lead and they were very worried about that and they were told us about different symptoms their children had that may or may not be from lead poisoning they spoke of headaches and stomach pain memory and concentration issues all of which could be from what poisoning since we're not doctors you know we don't have the ability to say that and actually it's very hard to say for sure if something is from my poisoning but regardless you know the families we spoke with their children had extremely high blood levels you know they were told that their children had these blood bubbles orally they were never given anything in writing what they were told was very worrying all right joe and in naples mitchell from human rights watch thank you. thank you so much. the focus of this is g.
