Activities seek to reduce the risk of injury from explosive ordnance by raising awareness of women, girls, boys and men in accordance with their different vulnerabilities, roles and needs, and promoting behavioral change. In recent years, exceptionally high numbers of civilian casualties from explosive ordnance have been recorded in Ethiopia. The delivery of effective EORE interventions to affected populations \u2013 in addition to clearance and other risk reduction programs \u2013 is a primary means of preventing injuries and saving lives.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Explosive Ordnance Risk Education (EORE)<\/strong> refers to activities which seek to reduce the risk of death and injury from mines and ERW, including unexploded sub-munitions by raising awareness and promoting safe behavior.<\/p>

Although EORE refers only to \u2018mines\u2019 it seeks to prevent harm to civilians from all types of explosive devices that remain present after a conflict has ceased. Therefore, when we talk about EORE we think also of reducing the threat of unexploded and abandoned ordnance, for example grenades, rockets, bombs and other ammunition.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

EORE \u2013 Goals and Strategies<\/strong><\/p>

  • Prevent casualties (Promoting or instilling safe behavior)<\/li>
  • Reduce socio-economic impact (Supporting other mine action components)<\/li>

      EORE<\/strong> should be given to all people who live in areas of former conflict or who may be travelling to these areas.<\/p>

      In general, people at risk of mines\/ERW fall into three categories:<\/p>

      • Unaware of the existence of mines\/ERW and their dangers<\/li>
      • Aware of the existence of mines\/ERW, but uniformed about how to stay safe<\/li><\/ul>

        Aware of mines\/ERW and what they can do, know how to minimize risks, but adopt high risk behavior – Misinformed.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
