Objectives

With support from Canada Fund for Local Initiatives (CFLI) and, in-kind and co-fund support from the German Federal Foreign Office through the Geneva International Centre for Humanitarian Demining (GICHD), ARMAC aims to invite relevant organisations to share experiences and best practices on gender and diversity mainstreaming approaches in mine action, as well as to facilitate discussion on gender and diversity in the upcoming Siem Reap Action Plan of the APMBC. This will likely be facilitated by trainers from the GICHD’s Inclusive Risk Reduction Division over two days in February 2024 (Siem Reap, Cambodia).

The workshop will likely cover the following suggested topics:

• Introduction to Gender and Diversity
• Gender & Diversity Mainstreaming in Mine Action: Practical Guidance
• Gender & Diversity in Strategic Planning and Information Management: Role of the National Authority
• Gender & Diversity in National Mine Action Standards and Quality Management
• How to address gender and diversity in the upcoming Siem Reap Action Plan of the APMBC
