The EORE AG draws on the expertise of over fifteen UN agencies, international organisations, international NGOs and national mine action authorities who serve as members or observers to the group. It is co-chaired by UNICEF and a rotating NGO – currently the HALO Trust – and the GICHD serves as secretariat. National authorities responsible for mine action and EORE will be the privileged interlocutors and decision makers for plans to be carried out in their respective countries.

For questions or requests to the EORE AG, please contact Faustine Auger (f.auger(at)gichd.org).
