Mine Action
Humanitarian demining
In 2007, FSD carried out an assessment in Vietnam to identify landmine contamination, mine action needs and initiate dialogue with national authorities.
A country scarred by decades of bombings
Since the end of the Vietnam War, the country has remained heavily contaminated by landmines and explosive remnants of war. Hundreds of thousands of tonnes of unexploded ordnance are believed to still be scattered across the territory. More than 100,000 people have been killed or injured in accidental explosions.
Exploratory missions to assess needs
In 2007, FSD strengthened its relations with the Vietnamese government through the Embassy of Vietnam in Bern. Two field visits were organised in three central provinces to assess the situation and identify needs related to humanitarian demining and the management of risks associated with unexploded ordnance.
