About the Company

The HALO Trust

Humanitarian mine clearance, EOD, and education

The HALO Trust is a humanitarian organization that clears landmines and other unexploded weapons in conflict-affected areas around the world. It trains and employs local people to remove and safely dispose of mines, UXO, and weapons, run explosive ordnance disposal, manage ammunition, and educate communities about risks. Its teams work on the ground in communities, using both manual demining and mechanical methods, and collaborate with governments and donors for funding. A key difference from many rivals is HALO’s strong focus on local employment (over 95% of its 9,000+ staff are locals) and its mission-driven, non-profit model aimed at turning dangerous land into safe land for farming, building, and resettlement. HALO’s goal is to reduce harm from mines and remnants of war and help communities recover and rebuild after conflict by making areas safe for people to live and prosper.
