The project also included Explosive Ordnance Risk Education (EORE), first aid training, community engagement, and rapid response activities to reduce the risks posed by explosive ordnance to affected communities.<\/p>\r\n<h5><strong>Key Achievements:<\/strong><\/h5>\r\n<p>Due to a delay at the beginning of the project (signing MOU with ANDMA and first installment by donor), the project started three months later than the planned date. Despite that delay, ATC could achieve the following:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Released <strong>357,543 <\/strong>square meters of land,<\/li>\r\n<li>Cleared <strong>10 <\/strong>targeted hazards,<\/li>\r\n<li>Delivered Explosive Ordnance Risk Education to <strong>7,446 people<\/strong>.\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Conducted <strong>338 EORE sessions<\/strong> for community members.<\/li>\r\n<li>Reached <strong>2,213 men, 1,753 women, 1,724 girls, and 1,756 boys<\/strong> through risk education.<\/li>\r\n<li>Provided EORE to <strong>387 <\/strong>newly returned individuals from Pakistan and Iran.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<li>Completed <strong>six first-aid <\/strong>training for 3 female and 3 male community members.<\/li>\r\n<li>Completed <strong>20 PSEA training sessions<\/strong> and <strong>80 PSEA awareness assessments<\/strong>.<\/li>\r\n<li>Recorded <strong>397 mine\/ERW victim reports<\/strong>.<\/li>\r\n<li>Completed <strong>two IM <\/strong>hazardous areas and destroyed<strong> 15 IMs<\/strong>.<\/li>\r\n<li>Responded to <strong>46 hotline reports<\/strong> through the Quick Response Team (QRT).<\/li>\r\n<li>Surveyed <strong>five hazards<\/strong>, released <strong>three hazards<\/strong>, and cancelled <strong>one hazard<\/strong> through QRT team.<\/li>\r\n<li>Identified and managed explosive ordnance and other devices through technical survey and clearance operations.<\/li>\r\n<li>Completed clearance of high-priority hazards located inside residential areas and a high school.<\/li>\r\n<li>Provided first aid support to community members.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h5><strong>Community Safety and Risk Education<\/strong><\/h5>\r\n<p>A major component of the project was community-based Explosive Ordnance Risk Education. ATC&#8217;s EORE team provided safety messages and awareness sessions to communities exposed to explosive ordnance risks, including vulnerable groups and newly-returned populations.<\/p>\r\n<p>The project also strengthened the capacity of EORE trainers and the Gender Focal Point through specialized training covering risk education sessions, victim data collection, case study development, and information gathering from internally displaced persons, returnees, and people affected by explosive ordnance and floods.<\/p>\r\n<h5><strong>Quick Response and Emergency Activities<\/strong><\/h5>\r\n<p>ATC&#8217;s Quick Response Team supported communities by responding to hotline reports and conducting rapid surveys and explosive ordnance-related activities. These efforts enabled the identification and management of hazards reported by communities and contributed to safer access and improved protection for affected populations.<\/p>\r\n<h5><strong>Safety Record<\/strong><\/h5>\r\n<p>The project was executed with remarkable success and safety, as there were no demining accidents happened throughout its duration. This achievement further enhances the organization&#8217;s outstanding safety record, with ATC having maintained a flawless demining safety record since 2020.<\/p>\r\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;] ATC has implemented hundreds of mine action projects throughout Afghanistan during the last 37 years.
