Halo Trust to double staff in Ukraine as it faces ‘epochal’ mine clearance

James Cowan, CEO of Halo Trust, discusses the organization's work in Ukraine, supported by £2 million from the UK government. The Halo Trust has been active since 2015, focusing on landmine clearance. The scale of unexploded ordnance is vast, with ongoing challenges due to the conflict. The organization can only operate in liberated areas, maintaining impartiality. A potential new Russian offensive could impact operations. Halo Trust maintains a strong relationship with the Ukrainian government, committed to supporting Ukraine for the long term.
