Anti-personnel landmines (APM) and Explosive Remnants of War (ERW) left behind from wars and conflicts are a deadly threat to many thousands of people in many parts of the world. Over the past 20 years, governments, international and non-governmental organisations have formed a remarkable humanitarian coalition to rid the world of the landmine and ERW menace. To this end, the GICHD is, in partnership with others, providing operational assistance, create and disseminate knowledge, improve quality management and standards, and support instruments of international law, all aimed at increasing the performance and professionalism of mine action.
