OUR OPERATIONS IN UKRAINE
More than 600 FSD staff members are now active in the provinces of Chernihiv, Kharkiv, Donetsk, and Kherson to clear the land and raise awareness about the dangers of explosive devices. In the final quarter of 2024, FSD’s goal is to maximise land clearance before winter conditions disrupt demining operations.
URBAN GARDENS IN BOGOTÁ 🌻
To support victims of the armed conflict in Colombia, our teams supply and set up hydroponic gardens in several host centres in the capital. This initiative offers opportunities for reintegration while addressing food insecurity.
31 MILLION M² CLEARED IN IRAQ
In eight years, our teams have cleared an area equivalent to twice the size of the city of Geneva. These efforts have allowed displaced people to return home, rebuild their villages, and finally live without the constant threat of accidental explosions.
For a safer world
In 2023, FSD teams located and neutralised 5'093 landmines and items of unexploded or abandoned ordnance.
