Published purpose

The SLAM project aims to promote improved and equitable development opportunities for conflict affected communities in the Western and Central Equatoria states of Southern Sudan. The project promotes sustainable development through the unique integration of Humanitarian Mine Action (HMA), comprised of technical mine clearance and Mine Risk Education (MRE), as well as livelihoods interventions and capacity development. As part of this, it seeks to strengthen the capacity of OSIL, an indigenous local NGO, to gradually assume responsibility for independently undertaking the HMA and sustainable livelihoods interventions in project areas.
