The Explosive Ordnance Risk Education Advisory Group (EORE AG) was launched in 2019. It provides overall guidance to the sector and identifies ways to improve the integration, effectiveness, efficiency and relevance of EORE.
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).

DEORE Project Mapping
The Digital Task Team of the EORE Advisory Group has worked to map digital EORE projects across the HMA sector over the past five years. The database serves as a reference guide for digital EORE projects around the globe by providing a snapshot of key information as well as contact details to enable practitioners to contact organisations about specific projects to learn more.
If your organisation is implementing any digital EORE projects, please use the above database to check if they are already represented and, if not, add them using this form.
If you are responsible for any of the projects listed and would like to edit or update any information featured in the database, please contact Matthieu Laruelle (m.laruelle(at)gichd.org).
Digital EORE Partnership and Platform Mapping
The Digital Task Team of the EORE Advisory Group has worked to map and provide a brief overview of opportunities for a range of commonly used digital partners and platforms that can add value to digital EORE projects. The different partners and platforms cover social media, messaging, video platforms, data collection, trainings, media partners, and more.
If your organisation is working with any digital partners or platforms that are not represented, please consider adding them using this table.
