A Global Crisis

Landmines are a global crisis—and it’s getting worse.

Landmines and explosive remnants of war affect more than 70 countries today, trapping communities in fear and economic stagnation. With over 110 million mines still active, every step can be fatal. Worse, conflict is on the rise, and funding for clearance is shrinking.
A landmine costs $3 to plant—but up to $300 to remove.
In 2024 alone, landmine casualties rose by over 15%, with children accounting for nearly half of all victims.
