The Frontline Club hosted a Q&A after screening Land of Mine to discuss how landmine clearance allows countries to recover from war.

The film tells the little-known story of how Europe was cleared of landmines at the end of World War II. Its contemporary relevance is that today, across the globe, millions of people continue to suffer because of landmines that were planted in conflicts that ended 30 or 40 years ago.

We were joined by Mikael Christian Rieks, the Producer of Land of Mine, and James Cowan, CEO of the world’s largest humanitarian mine clearance organisation The HALO Trust. It was moderated by Thorold Barker, Editor, Europe, Middle East and Africa for the Wall Street Journal.
