This grant, offered by USAID, is dedicated to the vital purpose of humanitarian mine clearance in Nagorno-Karabakh, specifically targeting landmines and unexploded ordnance remaining from the 1992-1994 conflict. The core aim is to save lives and prevent injury among the local population. Furthermore, the program seeks to return previously contaminated land to the community for productive use, thereby promoting and enabling subsistence living for rural populations. This facilitates essential activities such as low-level agriculture, animal husbandry, and foraging. USAID funding is strictly allocated for activities within traditional Nagorno-Karabakh territory, defined by Soviet-era Autonomous Oblast boundaries, ensuring targeted humanitarian relief.
