Assistance to Mine-Affected Communities (AMAC) at International Peace Research Institute

Academic

Mission Statement:
The Assistance to Mine-Affected Communities project (AMAC) undertakes studies of communities affected by landmines, with the aim of exploring the potential offered by local resources and local competence in humanitarian mine action (HMA). The focus is on the broader social and economic impact of mine action, as well as on peacebuilding more specifically. AMAC works in close partnership with HMA practitioners, both in order to learn from their experiences and to engage in a dialogue that can have an immediate impact on their field operations.
