Demining Services
The Canadian International Demining Corps (CIDC) is a Canadian
NGO, formed in 1996, to support advocacy for the Ottawa
Convention and to provide humanitarian mine-action services. In
cooperation with government agencies, the United Nations, NATO
and other NGO's, CIDC is working to integrate counter-mine
measures with sustainable development and community
reconstruction initiatives in areas suffering the aftermath of
war in Africa, Asia, the Middle East, Eastern Europe, and Latin
America.
Mine-action programs to date have focused on survey, detection,
clearance, technical assessments and demining equipment
procurement services. Geographically they cover Belarus, Bosnia,
Bulgaria, Croatia, Ecuador, Jordan, Kosovo, Macedonia,
Mozambique, Peru, South Lebanon, Taiwan and Thailand; and they
include substantial programs such as:
Mined-area impact survey in Mozambique (a national
survey
to locate, map and assess socio-economic impacts of mined areas
throughout the country, as part of a global survey initiative
undertaken by the UN).
Mine detection dog programs in Bosnia, Croatia and
Lebanon serving NGO demining organizations, Civil Protection
authorities, CROMAC, NATO / SFOR, Entity Armies, NDO and others
(including CIDC's own mine detection dog division, Canine
Countermine).
Emergency response demining and clearance of unexploded
ordnance in Kosovo.
Programme funding has been provided by agencies of the
Governments of Austria, Belgium, Canada and Norway, and generous
financial contributions have also been received from private
sector donors ranging from multi-national corporations to
smaller
groups of citizens such as student groups and concerned
individuals.
CIDC is a member of the Mines Action Canada and Cooperation
Canada Mozambique coalitions, and the ICBL Mine Action Working
Group. It has established strategic programming alliances with
Paul F. Wilkinson & Associates Inc. of Montreal, the Mines
Advisory Group of the U.K., and Human Survival & Development of
Pakistan. In addition to serving the humanitarian mine action
needs of a number of prominent international NGOs, major
institutional clients include NATO/SFOR, CROMAC and TMAC.
CIDC maintains offices in Canada, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Croatia,
Mozambique and the U.K.
