PROJECTS
Our work has an impact. All our projects significantly improve the social and economic situation of the affected population. We have participated in many projects in 14 countries since 1997. And we will carry on.
During the first 25 years of our existence, we
- Demined over 16'969'000 square metres of land, the equivalent of 2'377 football pitches
- Neutralised more than 65'000 explosive devices
- Informed around 522'000 people about the risks posed by explosive devices
But mines and unexploded remnants of war continue to threaten humans and animals in many countries of the world. That is why we are active in regions where we can achieve the most with the means at our disposal: in remote areas plagued by poverty.

Digital Risk Education
Traditional, direct risk education has become severely limited or even impossible in many countries since the start of the Covid pandemic. Therefore, World Without Mines enables an innovative approach of digital risk education through shadow puppet theatre.
