Charitable Foundation "Demining of Ukraine"
An independent organization established in response to Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine to support local communities and ensure the safety of its residents. Our mission is to restore previous functionality and security in areas contaminated by explosive remnants of war. Our team is committed to humanitarian principles and is focused on demining areas contaminated with explosive remnants of war.
Activities and programs
Our activities include humanitarian demining, organizing surveys and preventing risks to the local population. We are actively implementing programs such as:
History and origin
The foundation was founded by a community of volunteers and military personnel long before the full-scale invasion as a result of the events surrounding Russia's invasion of Crimea and eastern Ukraine. Subsequently, based on their own knowledge and self-financing, the foundation received state registration in 2022.
Mission and values
Our mission is to provide security and support to local communities and residents of the de-occupied territories in order to restore the original state of the war-affected areas.
In our activities, we adhere to the values of humanism, solidarity and security.
The purpose of the fund
The Foundation's activities cover a wide range of tasks in the field of humanitarian demining, organization of surveys of territories and prevention of risks for the local population.
The Foundation's goal is to improve safety and provide support to local communities and residents in order to restore the previous functionality of the cleared areas.
Development of the fund
In addition to humanitarian demining, the Foundation's specialists are developing an experimental direction, working together with research institutes and individual specialists in geophysics, agronomy, digital technologies, and working closely with military engineers and pyrotechnics, using the potential available to address mine risk issues.
The fund's decision
By using automated detection and demining systems, employing drones to visualize hazardous areas and analyze data, and applying modern scientific tools in our operations, we offer effective solutions and ensure proper conditions for the public and the safety of our employees in high-risk areas.
Research project to develop a demining unit
As part of the research work to develop its own demining algorithm and mechanical mine detection unit, the specialists of the Ukrainian Demining Foundation are working on the development and improvement of a method for rapid inspection of sites for contamination by ERW and removal of ERW by mechanical means.
Mechanized demining
This area is aimed at supporting the demining of agricultural land using an algorithm that has no analogues in Ukraine. Using a remote system developed by the Foundation's engineers, we have achieved impressive results, which are confirmed by scientific research.
Ukraine is among the top 5 largest agricultural exporters in the world. Therefore, our task is to speed up the process of humanitarian demining as much as possible and take care of global food security.
Equipment of mobile demining groups
The Foundation provides material and technical assistance to military sappers involved in pyrotechnic work not only in humanitarian demining but also in the performance of military tasks.
Mine risk education for the population
Informing the population about mine risk and teaching them how to prevent accidents related to explosive hazards is not only relevant to mined areas. Improving the effectiveness of humanitarian mine action begins with the development of safe behavioral skills.
Our activity
Our team performs a variety of tasks to ensure security and restore the territories:
Our team
The Foundation's team consists of certified sappers who have both military experience and experience in the SES and related agencies. Each team is staffed according to the typical structure of a pyrotechnic unit of the SES of Ukraine. With our practical experience and deep theoretical knowledge, we guarantee the quality of our demining activities.
The company's management consists of practical engineers who have in-depth knowledge of safety and organization of work with ERW and are constantly involved in all areas of the Foundation's activities.
