12 Form I Measures taken to inform the population i) The measures taken to provide an immediate and effective warning to the population in relation to all areas identified under paragraph 2 of Article 5. (According to Article 5, paragraph 2: Each State Party shall make every effort to identify all areas under its jurisdiction or control in which anti-personnel mines are known or suspected to be emplaced and shall ensure as soon as possible that all antipersonnel mines in mined areas under its jurisdiction or control are perimeter-marked, monitored and protected by fencing or other means, to ensure the effective exclusion of civilians, until all anti-personnel mines contained therein have been destroyed. The marking shall at least be to the standards set out in the Protocol on Prohibitions or Restrictions on the Use of Mines, Booby-Traps and Other Devices, as amended on 3 May 1996, annexed to the Convention on Prohibitions or Restrictions on the Use of Certain Conventional Weapons Which May Be Deemed to Be Excessively Injurious or to Have Indiscriminate Effects. During the period covered by this report the civic education of populations about the danger of landmines was carried out; for this purpose 45 teachers in schools in affected areas were trained, in Cohabite and Chigubo districts in Gaza province. This activity resulted in awareness raising covering 182,340 people, of whom 25,565 were school-age children. Mozambique Article 7 Report (January 2004/Dezembro 2004) 11

13 Form J Other relevant matters The States Parties can use this form to provide voluntary information on other relevant matters, including topics relating to compliance and implementation not covered by the formal requirements of Article 7. The States Parties are encouraged to report on activities carried out under Article 6, in particular those related to the assistance provided for the care, rehabilitation and social and economic reintegration of mine victims. In 2004, the Government continued its efforts to support mine victims and survivors in the country. The Ministry of Health assisted 10 mine victims in the provinces of Nampula, Tete and Zambezia. In addition to the Government s efforts to support victims the Landmine Survivor Network based in Zambezia province, has continued to support the socio-economic integration of 238 mine victims, through home visits in peer programs, the distribution and/or repair of compensation means for locomotion, the provision of school materials and support for income generation activities. Victim assistance is the mine action program s weakest component; it faces considerable difficulties due to a lack of funds. Mozambique Article 7 Report (January 2004/Dezembro 2004) 12
