What is the Landmine and Cluster Munition Monitor?

Landmine and Cluster Munition Monitor is an initiative providing research for the International Campaign to Ban Landmines (ICBL) and the Cluster Munition Coalition (CMC), now the ICBL-CMC. It is the de facto monitoring regime for the Mine Ban Treaty and the Convention on Cluster Munitions.

The Monitor is a civil society-based program providing research and monitoring on progress made in eliminating landmines, cluster munitions, and other explosive remnants of war.

The Monitor produces the following research products:

• Landmine Monitor Annual Report
• Cluster Munition Monitor Annual Report
• Online Country Profiles summarizing developments in each country
• Factsheets

The Monitor has published an annual Landmine Monitor Report since 1999, and published its first report on cluster munitions, Banning Cluster Munitions: Government Policy and Practice in May 2009. The first annual Cluster Munition Monitor Report was published in 2010.
