Why demining matters – in the eyes of Mozambicans

After the civil war, Mozambique was one of the most mined countries in the world. On 17 September 2015 the government of Mozambique declared it ‘mine free’. The HALO Trust has cleared more than 171,000 landmines from over 1,100 minefields. That’s about 80% of all landmines destroyed in Mozambique. The last area cleared by The HALO Trust was around two bridges and three viaducts, which carry cargo on the Machapinda Railway line from Beira to the borders of Zimbabwe and Zambia. In this video, local people talk about the difference mine clearance has made to their lives. The impact of mine clearance can be felt across Mozambique, from small rural communities to cities like Maputo. It has unlocked agricultural land, helped lift rural communities out of poverty and enabled the development of major infrastructure.
