Encouraging to hear today from UNICEF at side event on Explosive Ordnance Risk Education at #SiemReapSummit how the Oslo Action Plan with the dedicated chapter on EORE and Norway's advocacy as inviting state party brought a great change and drive to the sector.

"After the accident, I rebuild my life thanks to NGOs. #VictimAssistance still often relies on civil society organisations. States must do their part too, with no excuse, no exception, and no delay!”

Says mine survivor Emilie Vath in @minefreeworld statement at #SiemReapSummit.

"I don’t want to see any more young people around the world become victims of these cruel weapons!"

Cambodian mine-survivor Srey Nang appealed to all States to eradicate landmines at the presentation of #LandmineMonitor2024 on Monday at the #SiemReapSummit.

[HI_Advocacy @HI_Advocacy]

Many slogans in different languages – one clear message:
📢Antipersonnel mines are banned without exception!

At the #SiemReapSummit, survivors, together with other @minefreeworld campaigners, reminded delegates that these weapons destroy first and foremost civilian lives.

“Participation of survivors in developing national #VictimAssistance strategies not only has to happen, but work in an inclusive, meaningful, effective way!” emphasized Sofia Cogollos of @HI_federation in an insightful side event of @theGICHD +@AA_stabilisiert at #SiemReapSummit

[ICBL @minefreeworld]

On the eve of the #MineBanTreaty #SiemReapSummit , we urge a united stand: no new use of anti-personnel mines, by anyone, under any circumstances.p

South Africa can help protect civilians from use of #explosiveweapons in ongoing and future conflicts. Join the call to President Ramaphosa to endorse the declaration on the protection of civilians in populated areas today

"Germany and other States Parties with US stocks of cluster munitions on their territory should tell the United States to remove its stocks of cluster munitions without delay!" states @banclusterbombs at #12MSPCCM @GermanBmvg96314 @GermanyUNGeneva

Disappointed about your silence on the withdrawal of a state party @GermanyUNGeneva

[Ban Cluster Bombs @banclusterbombs]

Grateful for #Germany’s support for the convention on cluster munitions. We are however disappointed by the silence on #Lithuania’s withdrawal from the convention. Most speakers condemned the move—Germany, your voice on this is needed. Your support is needed. #12MSPCCM

[HI_Advocacy @HI_Advocacy]

Once again the Monitor shows that civilians accounted for a staggering 93% of all recorded casualties of #clustermunitions last year...
Our common fight against these weapons has to continue!
States have to double their efforts! #CCM12MSP

[Mary Wareham @marywareham]

#Lithuania 🇱🇹 has deposited its instrument to withdraw from the Convention on Cluster Munitions: https://t.co/HUQaTbXmfn 😢 It has 6 months to reconsider this ill-considered decision, which disregards the risk to civilians & stains its reputation @hrw https://t.co/o2ZWsCoY5v

[Handicap International DE @HI_Deutschland]

Seit 14 Jahren hat der Streubomben-Verbotsvertrag viel erreicht. 99% der Bestände der Vertragsstaaten sind vernichtet mit 178,5 Mio. Submunitionen. Die Vertragsstaaten müssen weiterhin alles tun, um die lebensrettende Konvention zu stärken und verteidigen! #StopClusterMunitions

[Handicap International DE @HI_Deutschland]

Die Oslo-Konvention verbietet Einsatz, Lagerung, Produktion und Weitergabe von Streumunition. Deutschland muss sich im Sinne dieser Konvention gegen die Lagerung von US-Streumunition im eigenen Land aussprechen. #Streumunition

[Handicap International DE @HI_Deutschland]

Der Streubombenverbotsvertrag ist gerade angesichts einer herausfordernden Sicherheitslage besonders wichtig #StopClusterBombs
Erfreulich klare und offene Worte des norwegischen Außenministers anlässlich des Ausstiegs Litauens aus der #CCM
@AuswaertigesAmt @ABaerbock @KatjaKeul

[HI_Advocacy @HI_Advocacy]

In 2022, #civilians made up 85% of 4710 recorded casualties of #landmines & #ExplosiveRemnantsofWar

👉Ensuring access to quality #rehabilitation and #AssistiveTechnology remains a priority in conflict-affected areas #MineBanTreaty

@HI_Deutschland had a very well received event with @GermanyDiplo at the German Parliament today to discuss the topic: no reconstruction and no humanitarian action without mine action! Experts from #Ukraine and #Iraq reported on their experience. #clearance #StopMinesBerlin2024

[Handicap International DE @HI_Deutschland]

Mit
@AuswaertigesAmt
heute beim Bundestagevent mit Abgeordneten - und einer klaren Botschaft: Kein Wiederaufbau und keine humanitäre Hilfe ohne Minenräumung! Expert*innen aus #Ukraine und #Irak berichten aus ihrer Erfahrung in #Entminung und #Opferhilfe #StopMinesBerlin2024

[Eva Maria Fischer @EvaMariaFischer]

Thank you @MarwaMbayed for your strong words at the opening of the #EWIPAOslo conference today and reminding the attendants of the many people traumatized by the use of #EWIPA!

[HI_Advocacy @HI_Advocacy]

"75% of Syrians have trauma due to the war, among them my friend Omar. He was deeply traumatized & despite therapy died by suicide a month ago, 8 years after fleeing to Germany" - @MarwaMbayed on the psychological impact of armed conflicts on civilians at the #EWIPA conference.

[Eva Maria Fischer @EvaMariaFischer]

Thanks so much to the survivors at the #ProtectionForum24 that you have the strengt to appeal to states in the basis of your personal experience and desperation. There is no time to wait! #stopbombingcivilians

[INEW @explosiveweapon]

We have artists painting a “Stop Bombing Civilians” mural, with the opportunity for conference attendees to participate 🎨
