For Victims of Explosive Ordnance
Information on rights and assistance for persons affected by mines and explosive ordnance
In the "Victims' Rights" section you can learn about the rights of victims, including references to relevant Ukrainian legislation and types of assistance provided.
Victim assistance refers to a set of measures aimed at meeting the needs and rights of victims of explosive ordnance. Victims can receive assistance from both the state and non-governmental organizations — national and international.
State Support for Landowners
Consumers in the field of mine action include various entities — owners of small land plots, large farmers and agro-companies, forest and river enterprises.
There are several mechanisms through which consumers can initiate work to secure land from explosive ordnance contamination:
- Emergency demining — through government agencies
- Humanitarian demining — through the Center for Humanitarian Demining
- Commercial demining — through private operators
Withdrawal of land from use due to EO contamination is grounds for additional state guarantees — in particular, regarding land tax exemption and rent payments.
