Danish Demining Group (DDG) operates in some of the most fragile and conflict-affected places in the world. The focus is on those countries most affected by landmines and other explosive remnants of war as well as widespread proliferation of small arms and light weapons. Today this includes Afghanistan, Colombia, Iraq, Liberia, Libya, Somalia (including Somaliland and Puntland), Sri Lanka, South Sudan, Uganda and Vietnam – with several more in the pipeline.

DDG seeks to utilise regional and cross-border synergies where possible and prefers to operate in countries where the Danish Refugee Council (DRC), already has a presence in order to strengthen the link between DDG’s Mine Action and Armed Violence Reduction and DRC’s emergency interventions and longer-term development programmes.
