International Day for Mine Awareness and Assistance in Mine Action

It’s a terrifying reality for those living in former conflict zones around the world - each step could potentially be the last. Every day landmines claim victims, remaining indiscriminate threats long after the end of conflicts. April 4 is International Day for Mine Awareness and Assistance in Mine Action. This day calls for civil society and governments to commit to efforts that eliminate landmines from future use. Help spread awareness and commit to action: lend your voice to those around the world calling for a binding international ban of the use of landmines.
