Where we work

MAG has worked in around 35 countries since 1989. We move into current and former conflict zones to clear the remnants of those conflicts.

This lessens the threat of death and injury, while releasing reclaimed and safe land and other vital resources back to the local population, helping countries to rebuild and develop their social and economic potential.
