Prince Harry Travels for Solo Trip to Follow in Mom Princess Diana’s Footsteps
· The Fresno BeePrince Harry is continuing to honor his late mother Princess Diana and her continued legacy with The HALO Trust.
The Duke of Sussex, 40, visited a remote Angolan village on Wednesday, July 16, to participate in a children's safety class. A press release shared by The HALO Trust noted that Harry walked across the same area of minefield he initially visited in 2013. The area is the same place where the children gathered to attend the safety education class.
On Wednesday, Harry spoke to families who reside near Africa's largest remaining minefield. "Children should never have to live in fear of playing outside or walking to school," he said. "Here in Angola, over three decades later, the remnants of war still threaten lives every day."
He continued, "The Angolan government's continued commitment is a powerful testament to HALO's success in saving lives and reducing humanitarian risk. We thank President Lourenço for his leadership and partnership, as well as continued donor support as we work together towards completing the mission of a landmine-free country."
"The Duke is humbled to be visiting a place and a community that was so special to his mother, and to recognize her tireless mission as an advocate for all those she felt needed her voice the most, even if the issue was not universally popular," a caption on the couple's joint Instagram page read at the time.
