The Mine and ERW Risk Education: A Project Management Guide is intended to give managers an easy-to-use tool to support their efforts – from the design and planning of a project to its conclusion.

The Guide reflects and supports an evolution in mine risk education over the last decade from awareness-raising and dissemination of printed materials with basic safety messages towards a more constructive engagement with affected communities.

This emphasies problem-solving and risk reduction. This publication updates the Guide to Improving Communication in Mine Risk Education Programmes, published in 2005, and builds on GICHD's work in supporting good practice in MRE, especially through the use of effective communication and community liaison.
