Technical Support

A mine clearance project requires support from civil engineers, mechanics, maintenance staff, and medics. The LCI curriculum mandates training additional personnel in each of those occupations. We hope that by helping to create a community of capable, dedicated support staff around each LCI project that we will be able to provide valuable human resources to all government and non-governmental organizations in the region. Most importantly, LCI aims to contribute to sustainable economic rehabilitation by building a body of professionals who can serve communities after the landmines are gone.

We demand an excruciating standard of professional expertise from our international trainers because, like the local de-miners, each member of the local support staff is expected not only to serve in the capacity for which he or she has been trained, but to teach others to do so as well. A comprehensive LCI training program provides the building blocks with which an ambitious, national mine action program can be built.
