About MAG (Mines Advisory Group)As a neutral and impartial international organisation, our mission is to save and improve lives by reducing the devastating effects of armed violence and remnants of conflict around the world. >>> |
Humanitarian Mine ActionWe work with conflict-affected populations to identify their needs, removing landmines and unexploded ordnance, and helping people in contaminated environments to live more safely. >>> |
||
Responding to emergenciesWe have a track record of responding quickly and efficiently to humanitarian emergencies that arise out of conflict. MAG has often been the first on the ground once fighting has ceased. >>> |
Investing in local staffBy training and employing people from the countries in which we work, we maximise the longer-term impact by improving the skills and broadening the experience of countries' workforces. >>> |
||
Armed Violence ReductionArmed violence is both a cause and a consequence of poverty and underdevelopment. It is no coincidence that many of the world’s poorest countries are affected by current or recent conflicts. >>> |
Millennium Development GoalsBy increasing safe access to water, education, trade and health services in some of the world's poorest countries, our work actively contributes to the chances of achieving the MDGs. >>> |

Track recordWe have worked in more than 40 countries since forming in 1989, assisting those people whose lives are affected by conflict. MAG is co-laureate of the 1997 Nobel Peace Prize. >>> |
