Colombia: Halo Trust
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, whether the Halo Trust is working on behalf of the Government in carrying out its de-mining work in Colombia; and if she will make a statement.
- Answer
-
DFID supports HALO Trust’s programmes in Burma, Zimbabwe, South Sudan, Cambodia, Somalia and Afghanistan. We do not currently work with HALO in Colombia. In 2016, DFID’s programmes cleared mines and other explosive remnants of war from over 2,000 hectares of land, which were returned back to productive use, saving lives and supporting livelihoods.
