HALO is the leading humanitarian mine clearance organisation globally with programmes in more than 25 countries and territories, and over 9,500 staff. Most of our staff are local employees and include a growing number of women. Our primary expertise is serving people affected by conflict, clearing landmines and the explosive remnants of war that threaten lives and livelihoods long after fighting has finished. We make land safe where war has ended, while also assisting those affected by active conflict and endemic violence, creating more durable solutions to support stability. In recent years HALO has grown significantly. With our financial strength and strong government, community and partner relationships, HALO is uniquely positioned to help build more resilient and prosperous communities; better equipped to withstand the interconnected global challenges of climate change, disease, political and economic instability. This will see the nature of HALO’s programming diversify.
