IT'S TIME TO TAKE . . .
ACTION!
April 4, 2023

Humanity has a Right to a "Mine-free World!"
"On this International Day, let’s take action to end
the threat of these devices of death, support
communities as they heal, and help
people return and re-build
their lives in safety and security."

For the millions living amidst the chaos of armed conflicts — especially women and children — every step can put them in danger’s path.
​
Even after the fighting stops, conflicts often leave behind a terrifying legacy: landmines and explosive ordnance that litter communities. Peace brings no assurance of safety when roads and fields are mined, when unexploded ordnance threatens the return of displaced populations, and when children find and play with shiny objects that explode.
​
The United Nations Mine Action Service gathers partners together to remove these deadly weapons, support national authorities, and ensure safe access to homes, schools, hospitals and farmers’ fields. The Service also supported the design of the Black Sea Grain Initiative and the safe export of grain and fertilizer from Ukrainian ports.
​
Yet, broader global efforts are essential to safeguard people from mines.
​
I urge Member States to ratify and fully implement the Anti-Personnel Mine Ban Convention, the Convention on Cluster Munitions and the Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons.
​
On this International Day, let’s take action to end the threat of these devices of death, support communities as they heal, and help people return and re-build their lives in safety and security.
