In this photo taken on Monday, Dec 19, 2016, Saro Kumari Mandal, 26, sits with her son and her father-in-law at the Department of Foreign Employment to receive compensation after her husband died as a migrant worker in Qatar, in Kathmandu, Nepal. Eventually, with help, she received $2,777 from the Foreign Employment Promotion Board. She said she would use the money to open a small store in the village selling cookies and noodles, and also invest in a sewing machine. She wants to earn money for their son's education. "I want to make my son a teacher or a doctor when he grows up," she said. (AP Photo/Niranjan Shrestha)
