In this Wednesday, Nov. 30, 2016 photo, Saro Kumari Mandal, 26, whose husband died in his sleep as a migrant worker in Qatar, walks dressed in a white sari inside her home in Belhi village, Saptari district of 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. Saro isn't allowed to remarry and will probably live on the edges of society, earning nothing more than some food to eat and a place to sleep. (AP Photo/Niranjan Shrestha)
