Thursdays with Friends: Time to Ban Landmines

It has been 24 years since the 1997 Mine Ban Treaty was first signed. Although the United States was among the first to call for it, it still has not ratified the treaty. Today, 60 countries are still contaminated by anti-personnel mines. Children accounted for 54% of all the resulting civilian casualties in 2019. Join us on April 8 for a Thursdays with Friends discussion with Ursala Knudsen-Latta, FCNL’s legislative representative for peacebuilding.
