Welcome to the Future Demining and EOD Tech website - a one-stop information hub and knowledge-sharing platform for the global demining community.
The dramatic rise in areas contaminated by landmines and explosive remnants of war (ERW) in recent years calls for urgent action to accelerate the post-conflict demining process, while adhering to the International Mine Action Standards (IMAS) and ensuring strict safety measures for demining teams.
The Future Demining and EOD Tech project aims to leverage the demining community's collective expertise, foster peer-to-peer dialogue, and assist stakeholders, academia, technology providers, end-users, and impacted communities in identifying and benefiting from the latest scientific developments, emerging technologies, and innovative techniques through an open and trusted information-sharing platform.
