Strategic management for mine action involves the establishment of national mine action programmes, the development of national mine action strategies and capabilities, and planning and implementing well-planned transitions to national ownership. Through its Strategic Management section, GICHD supports these processes in addition to the application of results-based management and quality management for mine action, and linking mine action with broader international assistance programmes (development, humanitarian, peacekeeping, post-conflict recovery, human security, security sector, etc.).
Our Strategic Management section consists of two complementary programmes:
- Mine Action, Security and Development
- Quality Management, Monitoring and Evaluation
In addition, the section conducts applied research on diverse issues which are closely connected with its core functions, including:
- the negative impacts of mines/ERW (e.g. the pattern of accidents over time)
- the developmental benefits stemming from mine action
- mine action and aid effectiveness
We also offer the following services:
- Advisory services on strategic planning and management, monitoring and evaluation, etc.
- Project and programme evaluations or assessments
- Landmine and Livelihoods surveys (country-specific)
- Evaluating Mine Action training workshops on a regional or country-specific basis
