The United Nations Global Marketplace is accepting applications for its Explosive Ordnance Risk Education (EORE) to contribute to achieving the strategic objectives of the Sudan Country Programme Strategy through the implementation of Explosive Ordnance Risk Education interventions.
UNMAS is a component of the United Nations Integrated Transition Assistance Mission in Sudan (UNITAMS) which was established on 4 June 2020 per Security Council resolution 2524. Mine action was explicitly invoked as an element to support the mission strategic objective: Assist peacebuilding, civilian protection and rule of law, in particular in Darfur and the states of South Kordofan and Blue Nile (the Two Areas). UNMAS also participates in the United Nations country team (UNCT) in Sudan, working in furtherance of the UNITAMS mandate.
Impact: The Sudanese population lives free of the threat of explosive ordnance. “SC resolution 2524 (2020) on UNITAMS”.
Outcome: People at risk recognize how to mitigate the threat of explosive ordnance.
Outcome Indicator(s): # and % of EORE beneficiaries that demonstrate an increase in knowledge between unsafe and safe practices.
Target Beneficiaries
