Mine Action Review
Mine Action Review@MineActionRev·
This week at @MineBanTreaty #22MSP in @UNGeneva, States and civil society are affirming the importance of this landmark disarmament Convention. We’ve heard some important updates on progress in #landmine clearance, but are concerned the pace of clearance is too slow in many affected countries. Read ‘Clearing the Mines 2025’ to see the current status and what’s needed to drive forward #clearance and achieve completion. mineactionreview.org
