The GICHD will also facilitate strategy stakeholder workshops in Sri Lanka, aiming to analyse the national context in the light of updated contamination information and develop a theory of change that will ground the country’s final mine action strategy, which is expected to lead to completion under Article 5 of the APMBC on clearance of mined areas. The Centre will also support a mid-term strategy review in Kosovo, aiming to identify key implementation challenges and achievements, as well as to document good practices and lessons learnt.
