Thank you UNDP in Viet Nam and #VNMAC for hosting the moving exhibit of artworks by hundreds of children living in the areas most contaminated by landmines & explosive remnants of war. Support to #MineAction is critical to ensure #SaferFutures for these younger generations.

With almost 20% of its territory contaminated by landmines & remnants of war, it’s inspiring to see the commitment of the government & its partners, incl. UNDP in Viet Nam to building #MineAction capacity through advanced technologies, by training more women deminers & more. #VNMAC

I am very concerned by announcements by several United Nations member countries to withdraw from the Anti-Personnel Mine Ban Convention. We must uphold humanitarian norms & accelerate mine action. The protection of innocent lives depends on our collective action & commitment.

Decades of conflict have left Afghanistan heavily contaminated by explosive ordnance, putting millions — especially children — at risk. Hear from the Mine Action Chief on why urgent support is critical. #InvestInHumanity
