Amie Kirkham works for Conciliation Resources - a peace building organisation based in the United Kingdom, with branches around the world.
She is the PNG activities manager for the NGO and has overseen work done in recent times with veterans from the Bougainville civil war.
Their new report called 'The Voices of Central Bougainville's Unheard Veterans' says, while there has been progress in engaging with the veterans, they still face issues and require support.
Ms Kirkham spoke with Don Wiseman and she told him about the 'unheard veterans.'
