Toolbox Implementation for Removal of Anti-personnel Mines, Submunitions and UXO -TIRAMISU

Kurzfassung

Clearing large civilian areas from anti-personnel landmines and cluster munitions is a difficult problem because of the large diversity of hazardous areas and explosive contamination. No single solution exists and many Mine Action actors have expressed the need for a Toolbox from which to choose the tools best fit to a given situation. The TIRAMISU project aims at providing the foundation for a global Toolbox that will cover the main Mine Action activities, from the survey of large areas to the actual disposal of explosive hazards, including Mine Risk Education. The Toolbox produced by the project will provide Mine Action actors with a large set of tools, grouped into thematic modules. These tools will have been designed with the help of end-users and validated in mine affected countries.
