Landmines (antipersonnel (AP) and anti-tanks mines) and Explosive Remnants of War (ERW), which include unexploded ordnance (UXO) and abandoned explosive ordnance, represent a major threat to civilian. United Nation Department of Human Affairs (UNDHA) assesses that there are more than 100 million mines that are scattered across the world and pose significant hazards in more than 68 countries. The international Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) estimates that the casualty rate from landmines currently exceeds 26,000 persons every year. It is estimated that more than 800 persons are killed and 1,200 maimed each month by landmines around the world. The primary victims are unarmed civilians and among them children are particularly affected. Worldwide, there are some 300,000-400,000 landmine survivors and this number is increasing. Survivors face terrible physical, psychological and socio-economic consequences. Landmines undermine peace and stability in whole regions by displacing people and inhibiting the use of land for production while subjecting people life to a continuous danger. Besides this, the medical, social, economic, and environmental consequences are immense.
