Accordingly, the project will focus on carrying out non-technical and technical surveys for cleaning up explosives from the land from explosive pollution, serving socio-economic development; maintaining mobile bomb and mine disarmament for destroying explosives found in technical surveys or found by local residents.

Under the project, local officers’ capacity in coordination and management will be supported during the implementation of RENEW, which uses a capital of over VND225 billion sponsored by NPA./.
