Syria: Safer Ground for a Safer Future

For 14 million Syrians forced from their homes, the dream of returning is often blocked by a silent enemy: mines and unexploded ordnance. A single explosive device can paralyse entire communities, delaying learning for children and preventing farmers from cultivating their fields.

🏠 Families returning to their neighborhoods.
🎒 Children playing and learning without fear.
🌾 Restoring the backbone of the economy.
