Vietnam
Key Developments
The Korea-Vietnam Peace Village Project started the second phase of its mine action programme in May 2024 with Vietnam National Mine Action Centre (VNMAC) teams working in three central provinces under the US$25 million initiative. The Geneva International Centre for Humanitarian Demining (GICHD) conducted an assessment to prepare for the upgrade of VNMAC’s national database from Information Management System for Mine Action (IMSMA) New Generation to IMSMA Core.
Recommendations for Action
- Vietnam should accede to the Anti-Personnel Mine Ban Convention (APMBC) as soon as possible.
- Vietnam should publish a detailed assessment of areas known or suspected to contain anti-personnel (AP) mines.
- Vietnam should report annually on survey, clearance, or explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) interventions targeting AP mines.
