On Sept. 28, the HALO Trust will be hosting a night of music, art, food, and a good cause to create a mine-free Artsakh.
To date, HALO Trust, the world's oldest and largest humanitarian landmine clearance organization, has cleared 581 minefields in Nagorno Karabakh (Artsakh), yet, 144 still remain.
HALO is the only mine clearance organization operating in Nagorno Karabakh and development, reconstruction, resettlement, and other humanitarian aid is dependent on the continuation of mine clearance. Since its creation in 1988, with the help of the HALO Trust, over 1.4 million landmines have been destroyed.
