Welcome to Mines Action Canada (MAC), Canada's campaign against landmines, cluster bombs and explosive remnants of war (ERW).
- These weapons are lethal barriers to development impacting the health, economy, environment, human rights and gender equality in affected communities.
- This is solvable within our lifetime. We know the answer. We have the legal and political tools to solve it. We just need your help to make sure we finish the job!
- MAC was one of the driving forces behind the two international treaties that limit the damage done by these weapons.
- MAC has a long track record of demonstrating international leadership in the International Campaign to Ban Landmines (ICBL) and the Cluster Munition Coalition.
- MAC is the lead agency responsible for coordinating global research on landmines and cluster bombs.
Find out how we are working towards achieving a mine-free world and how you can be a part of the global movement to eliminate the suffering caused by these weapons.
