In 2026, significant changes were made to the International Mine Action Standards (IMAS) in relation to the core topic of land release. In January 2026, the United Nations InterAgency Coordination Group on Mine Action endorsed a new edition of IMAS 07.11 on Land Release and withdrew IMAS 07.10 on Land Release and Residual Contamination Management. In September 2026, the IMAS Review Board approved Technical Note for Mine Action (TNMA) 07.11/04, Guidance for the Implementation of Land Release, providing practical inputs to support implementation of the revised standard.
