This project aims to strengthen gender-responsive mine action efforts in emergency and long-term recovery activities for crisis-affected women and girls in Myanmar. Project activities include: (1) creating a tool to support the mapping of natural hazards (landmine contamination, flooding, and cyclones) in earthquake impacted areas; (2) conducting a rapid analysis of Mines Advisory Group's existing contamination baseline and open-source data to highlight the likelihood of explosive ordnance contamination in earthquake impacted areas; (3) strengthening victim assistance services through referral
The objectives of this project are to improve secure access to land and increase sustainable livelihood opportunities among MAG’s staff to transition from demining to alternative employment opportunities. This project would result in 64,960m2 of land being cleared from confirmed hazardous areas, as well as a range of MAG-pioneered staff transition activities. It would directly contribute to Sri Lanka’s transition to being landmine-free by 2027. Project activities include: (1) deploy two Mine Action Teams (MAT), 1 Mechanical Support Team (MST), 1 Casualty Evacuation Team (CET), and 1 Community
