In El Orejon, a rural area in north-west Colombia, unprecedented cooperation between FARC rebels and government troops is helping to clear land mines which have taken nearly 11,000 lives. After five decades of conflict, the two sides are taking part in the pilot project as part of on-going peace talks. Natalio Cosoy reports from El Orejon on the progress being made.
