The Government of Sri Lanka (GoSL) is currently working on surveying and collecting data on explosive ordnance victims, in line with Article 7 of the Anti-Personnel Mine Ban Convention (APMBC).
The data collection form for "Victim Assistance Needs Assessment" was reviewed yesterday, with the relevant ministries and partner organizations. The Sri Lanka Campaign to Ban Landmines (SLCBL) actively engages with the Government in this regard. The survey is to be conducted at the end of 2024.
This effort is coordinated by the National Mine Action Center (NMAC) of Sri Lanka.
