Mine Action

Mine Action encompasses a range of efforts to detect, defuse, and remove landmines and unexploded ordnance to make areas safe for communities. It includes activities like surveying contaminated land, clearing mines, delivering training, and educating populations about risks. The goal is to reduce harm, enable safe access to land for farming, housing, and infrastructure, and support recovery in post-conflict regions. Mine Action is vital for protecting lives, promoting development, and helping communities rebuild securely.
