MOZ-023 $49,290 Night of a Thousand
Dinners and CIDA
A 20,000 m2 minefield in Mavila, Zavala, Inhambane, Mozambique.
This minefield is located very close to the centre of a busy town
with bus stops, markets and other commercial areas close by. More
than 1000 families live in this town and are at risk regularly.
MOZ-028 $36,968 Night of a Thousand
Dinners and CIDA
A 15,000 m2 minefield in Mulir, Mecanhelas, Niassa, Mozambique.
During the war, FRELIMO laid mines to protect their military positions
from RENAMO attack. Local families are currently using 100% of the
area surrounding the marked field for subsistence farming and there
is great pressure for additional land. As locals have tried to expand
the cultivated area, they have found mines, fortunately with no
casualties. Clearing this area would benefit local families and
would also allow the railroad to opened up improving infrastructure
for the entire country.
CRO-055 $65,720 Night of a Thousand
Dinners and CIDA
A 25,000 m2 minefield in Lipje village, Karlovac, Karlovac County,
Croatia. This area includes several foot paths and an access lane
to the river Kupa. Other contaminated areas include fields and an
area next to the village and near the river bank. Demining this
area will enable local residents to reach the river safely to extract
gravel necessary for use in construction. Vegetation near the bank
of the Kupa river and along the drainage canals is dense (willow
and poplar trees as well as reeds and bushes), while the rest of
the area is covered with grass and reed.
