In this photo Nov 30, 2016 photo, a Nepalese woman carries her grandchild, whose father is working abroad as an unskilled laborer, in front of their home in Belhi village, in Saptari district, Nepal. The number of Nepali workers going abroad has more than doubled since the country began promoting foreign labor in recent years: from about 220,000 in 2008 to about 500,000 in 2015. Yet the number of deaths among those workers has risen much faster in the same period. In total, over 5,000 workers from this small country have died working abroad since 2008, more than the number of U.S. troops killed in the Iraq War. (AP Photo/Niranjan Shrestha)
