Czech Republic

Last Updated: 30 July 2012

Support for Mine Action

In 2011, the Czech Republic contributed US$23,683 in mine action funding to Bosnia and Herzegovina and the Occupied Palestinian Territories for mine clearance operations.[1] This was a huge drop from its contribution to mine action in 2010 of almost $2.2 million (most of which was allocated to Jordan, but which also included a significant contribution for Afghanistan). In 2007–2010, the Czech Republic’s contributions to mine action averaged $1.48 million per year.
