Toolbox Implementation for Removal of Anti-personnel Mines, Submunitions and UXO

To reach the needed level of expertise the TIRAMISU team includes organisations that were involved in the most important European and international Mine Action research projects over the last fifteen years. The TIRAMISU partners will build on their past experience of this topic, their long tradition to work with each other, and the strong links they have forged over the years with Mine Action Centres, demining operators and non-governmental organisations, to construct and assemble a toolbox that will represent a step forward in Mine Action by serving as the basis for a unifying, comprehensive and modular integrated solution to the clearing of large areas from explosive hazards. The TIRAMISU project aims at providing the foundation for a global toolbox that will cover the main Mine Action activities, from the survey of large areas to the actual disposal of explosive hazards, including Mine Risk Education. The toolbox produced by the project will provide Mine Action actors with a large set of tools, grouped into thematic modules, which will help them to better perform their job. These tools will have been designed with the help of end-users and validated by them in mine affected countries.
