A global network working for a world free of landmines

The International Campaign to Ban Landmines is a global network in some 100 countries that works for a world free of antipersonnel landmines, where landmine survivors can lead fulfilling lives.

Problem

Antipersonnel mines are indiscriminate weapons that injure and kill civilians in every corner of the globe, every day.

The Treaty

The 1997 Mine Ban Treaty is a legally binding international agreement that bans the use, production, stockpiling and transfer of antipersonnel mines and places obligations on countries to clear affected areas, assist victims, and destroy stockpiles.

Finish the Job

The promise of the Mine Ban Treaty will be fulfilled when the norm against use of antipersonnel mines is universal, and when States Parties to the treaty have fully implemented their key treaty obligations – mine clearance, stockpile destruction, and victim assistance.
