Iraq: Lessons Learnt from the MAG-NRC Partnership (2022)
WHY IS HLP IMPORTANT TO MAG AND OTHER HMA ACTORS?
Mine action interventions have the potential to:
- Exacerbate land conflicts or create new ones
- Contribute to land grabbing or forced evictions as value of land increases
- Maintain or entrench gender inequalities in access to land
- Undermine food security if population relies on land for subsistence
So we want to ensure:
- Do No Harm : avoiding causing harm or exacerbating disputes
- Individual level: trespassing/ theft/conflicts
- Community level: conflict/displacement
- Reduce MAG’s potential exposure to property-related legal claims (trespassing, damage, negligence)
- Contribute to positive protection outcomes
