14.5 million antipersonnel mines. That is what Poland's government began seeking to procure on 2 March 2026, just days after its withdrawal from the Mine Ban Treaty took effect.

📆Tomorrow at the Meeting of States Parties #22MSP to the #MineBanTreaty #Geneva, @hi-federation.bsky.social will organise a side event on #VictimAssistance to discuss challenges & examples from #Ukraine & #Colombia @minefreeworld.bsky.social @drcngo.bsky.social @hi-deutschland.bsky.social Join us👇
Victim Assistance: Comparing best practices from long-term projects in Colombia with recent findings from the crisis context in Ukraine 

The Mine Ban Treaty recognize victim assistance (VA) as both a core obligation and a humanitarian priority. Colombia has made notable progress in reforming its laws and policies, developing long-term, inclusive, and community-based VA approaches shaped by its experience with internal conflict. In contrast, Ukraine faces a rapidly evolving challenge as ongoing hostilities create new contamination and victim assistance needs. Emerging evidence from Ukraine highlights both difficulties and innovative responses that may guide future best practices. This side event aims to discuss both challenging and inspiring examples from Ukraine and Colombia with the aim to strengthen Victim Assistance through inclusive, non-discriminatory strategies, fostering coordination, survivor participation, and sustainable, rights-based support. 

Friday, 5 December 

13:00-15:00 

Room: XII

The global ban on antipersonnel landmines saves civilian lives. But the landmark treaty faces serious threats from countries leaving the treaty and new landmine use. In 2025, five countries gave formal notification to withdraw from the 1997 Mine Ban Treaty. Learn more ⤵️

Since #Russia’s full-scale invasion began, cluster munitions have caused over 1,200 civilian casualties in #Ukraine. Behind each number is a life forever changed, a family torn apart, a community living in fear. 👉 This is why the work to eradicate these indiscriminate weapons matters more than ever.

👉 The 2025 Report shows that the Convention on Cluster Munitions is making a real difference. In 2024 alone, States Parties cleared more cluster munition remnants than they did in the previous five years. This is what humanitarian progress looks like: safe ground for civilians and their futures.

Mr. Volodymyr pictured in the yard of his home near the village of Zarazhne in Kharkiv Oblast. In February 2022 he was injured in a cluster munition strike on Kharkiv city and now has no feeling below his left thigh as a result of nerve damage. The strike, he says, was the first instance of cluster munitions in the war. When you are injured from cluster munitions he says, there is no end. He is a beneficiary of HI with cash assistance. © C.
