Evaluation Of Npa's Humanitarian Mine Action Project And Review Of Ethiopia's Mine Action Programme, Ted Paterson Feb 2007

Evaluation Of Npa's Humanitarian Mine Action Project And Review Of Ethiopia's Mine Action Programme, Ted Paterson

Global CWD Repository

EMAO (Ethiopian Mine Action Office) is a large demining organisation, with growing capabilities, that has performed increasingly well since its establishment. Its demining operations have made a substantial contribution to the resettlement and rehabilitation efforts in the war-affected districts (woredas) of Tigray and Afar, delivering significant socio-economic benefits for those regions and promoting Ethiopia's post-war recovery. NPA assistance is well targeted and relevant to EMAO's existing and future needs. While NPA has experienced some start-up problems, it has been able to manage these to control slippage. It seems likely that the project will achieve its principal objectives by the end …

Continuing his SOP drills he began to excavate the area of the source of the signal to the metal detector using the trowel issued to him for this purpose. He may not have been working to the SOP drill, as it seems likely that, because of the restricted area of work caused by the surrounding rocks, he was digging directly down to the mine, rather than digging across to the mine by excavating a small trench. An explosion occurred when the PMN antipersonnel mine, which was the source of the metal detector signal, detonated.
