HALO works hard to clear landmines and other explosives that are left behind after conflicts around the world. Find out how our work helps to rebuild lives.
What we do
HALO helps people that have been affected by conflicts and emergencies around the world. We help them to rebuild their homes, restore their livelihoods, and keep their children safe.
We've worked in more than 40 countries and territories since 1988, from Kosovo to Colombia, Sri Lanka to Sudan.
We employ and train local people, empowering communities and transforming futures.
Primary focus areas
We gather and destroy weapons and ammunition left behind after conflict that could otherwise end up in the wrong hands. Learn how we manage weaponry.
Families in conflict zones live surrounded by landmines, so risk education is a matter of life and death. Find out how HALO teaches people to stay safe.

We also run a number of complementary programs to provide humanitarian aid, use innovative technology, support people affected by conflict and enable environmental restoration.
Many incredible women join HALO to make their country safe, rebuild their lives and develop their careers.
We leverage drones and other cutting-edge technology to safely dispose of explosives.
HALO's health and safety initiatives restore hope and resilience.
We strive to protect ecosystems and wildlife in war-torn regions.
