Awards

Mine Kafon is proud to have received recognition and awards throughout the world. We have been presented with prizes for both our landmine awareness raising efforts and our disruptive innovations in the field of landmine detection, in countries ranging from The Netherlands, Belgium, Italy and Austria to South Africa, Qatar and China, which you can check below. We are honoured, because each recognition makes us even more motivated to solve this issue and help those in need.

“Life is about making choices: you can either spend three quid on a glossy magazine or you can spend it clearing three square metres of minefield and help give people their lives back. As simple as that.”
