Topic: How Mine Action can power Iraq’s climate goals

Focus: GIS + climate indicators + IM for smarter national planning

Next Steps: 

  • Build a national info-sharing framework
  • Run workshops on IM, GIS & AI
  • Pilot climate-smart land-release projects

Localization is key we proposed a platform to rally Iraqi NGOs and better support the NMAA. A GICHD field presence will amplify impact on the ground.
