**HAMAP-Humanitaire**
**https://hamap-humanitaire.org**
Halte aux Mines AntiPersonnel (HAMAP)-Humanitaire is a French NGO, established in 1999 in order to contribute to the struggle against mines and the risks it presents to civilian population. HAMAP-Humanitaire is active in 13 countries and pursues a mission of support to local partners from the need assessment, through project conception and to its sustainable implementation. HAMAP-Humanitaire diversified its field of activity, to encompass two sectors: Engineering (WASH, construction, energy) and Mine Action.
## **HAMAP-Humanitaire in Syria**
HAMAP-Humanitaire is establishing and expanding its humanitarian mine action activities in Syria through a partnership and localization-based approach. As part of a consortium, HAMAP-Humanitaire is contributing to a humanitarian mine action intervention aimed at reducing civilian harm caused by explosive ordnance, restoring safe access to land and essential services, and supporting the strengthening of national mine action capacities in Syria.
Within the consortium, HAMAP-Humanitaire is supporting activities focused on Explosive Ordnance Risk Education (EORE), including direct and digital EORE approaches, community-based assessment and prioritization methodologies, baseline and endline Knowledge, Attitudes and Practices (KAP) surveys, and adapted Non-Technical Survey (NTS) approaches to strengthen evidence-based prioritization and response planning.
In parallel, HAMAP-Humanitaire supports localization and capacity strengthening efforts through direct engagement with Syrian partners, including technical and organizational support to national mine action actors. The programme also contributes to strengthening national humanitarian mine action capacities through training and operational support to local clearance teams.
The intervention is implemented in close coordination with consortium members, local partners, humanitarian actors, and relevant national stakeholders, in areas affected by displacement, return movements, and contamination from explosive ordnance. HAMAP-Humanitaire’s approach aims to combine immediate humanitarian risk reduction with longer-term support to sustainable and nationally led mine action efforts in Syria.
