🇺🇳 Today is @UN Day.
In 1945, the UN Charter came into force, promising “to save succeeding generations from the scourge of war.”
UNMAS teams carry that promise in 19 countries & territories: clearing explosives, teaching safety, supporting survivors.

This week in Somalia, UNMAS delivered its 1st multi-institution, mixed-gender Weapons & Ammunition Management course!
💬 "This ammunition handling course is vital in ensuring Somali stockpiles of ammunition are managed safely, thus protecting civilians & security forces"

Although #WorldHumanitarianDay has come and gone, we do not forget those who choose to help and protect others. The removal of #landmines creates a safer future for communities who have often lived in fear for many decades.
This #WorldHumanitarianDay, discover the personal stories behind #TheChoiceToProtect.

Landmines continue to kill and maim decades after war ends.
Since 2001, the UN Mine Action Strategy has supported clearance, education, and survivor assistance—making peace real long after conflict ends.

"Humanitarian workers stand up for people in need. We must stand up for them.
The world must act: to respect the rules of war; ensure safe access; hold perpetrators accountable; provide sufficient resources.
We must #ActForHumanity–now."

19 August is #WorldHumanitarianDay. We thank all of the humanitarian workers who risk their lives for the safety of others.
When roads disappear, flights are grounded & communities are cut off by conflict, floods or disease, the UN Humanitarian Air Service, @WFP_UNHAS, steps in.
UNHAS ensures lifesaving humanitarian assistance & aid workers get through to communities in need. #WorldHumanitarianDay

@UN_Ukraine
Millions of landmines are still a daily threat for communities around the world. Without clearing these devices, this threat will still remain.
#landmines #landminefree #safeground
Every day, landmines kill & maim people — often long after conflicts end. In over 60 countries & territories, these hidden hazards remain a deadly threat.
Achieving a mine-free world is urgent.

For 78 years, UN peacekeepers have been on the front lines of conflict, protecting civilians.
Today, many continue that legacy, risking their lives every day in the service of peace.
We honour their service and sacrifice.
