Edo has 3 sisters age 4, 3 and 6 months. Emmy is 22 years old and has only gone to school for 3
years. There have been ethnic conflicts in the region and Edo’s father Roni was involved in the
fighting. They have not seen him for 2 weeks. His mother thinks there is a government program
to help people like her. She also hears that WFP and Oxfam have offices in Mulia and they
might be able to help her.
