The overall objective of the group is to call on donors and international sponsors to effectively deploy the programme.
The Mine Action Partnership Group also aims to bolster mutual understanding on policies, plans and measures to implement the programme, ease the impacts of bomb and mine pollution on Vietnam’s socio-economic development.

More than 800,000 tonnes of unexploded bombs and mines are buried across 21% of the country, mainly in the central provinces of Nghe An, Ha Tinh, Quang Binh, Quang Tri, Thua Thien-Hue and Quang Ngai.
