Victim Assistance: The 2001-2002 Co-Chairs of the Standing Committee on Victim Assistance and Socio-Economic Reintegration reminded participants that approximately 43 States Parties may require assistance in helping meet the care, rehabilitation and reintegration needs of landmine survivors. They emphasised that the challenge of meeting these needs is compounded by the fact that some of the countries with the greatest numbers of mine victims are also some of the world’s poorest countries and that the need to assist survivors exists for as long as there are landmine survivors. In addition, the Co-Chairs will underlined the importance of providing and sharing information on the resources needed and available for matters pertaining to victim assistance and the successful implementation of Article 6.3.
