The Mineseeker Foundation is dedicated to the detection,identification and removal of landmines. It seeks to help those people who have been affected by landmines. By rehablitating the land and ensuring that the the communities afffected have sustainable futures.

We have launched the Sole of Africa campaign to help communities affected by landmine and unexploded ordnance (UXO)
You can help us by joining the Sole of Africa campaign.

There are over 100 million land mines buried beneath the surface of this Earth. Someone steps on a mine every 19 minutes, usually women and children. Whole communities live in constant fear and terror. We can stop this with new technology, developed by the British Ministry of Defence and licensed to Mineseeker. It detects all mines in an instant. The system was tested and deployed in Kosovo and featured in the BBC documentary Mineseekers which you may have seen (a copy is available if required.) It represents a major man made disaster, bigger than the Tsunami and Pakistan earthquake combined. The point is we can fix this problem quickly.

The Sole of Africa Campaign, which will take the project much further.Once the mines have been identified and the removal process is under way, the land will then be released for agriculture and a Foster Management team will be installed to teach the communities to sow, grow and sell their own produce, empowering the people to, self help, the only way to solve the mine and famine problem, in the long term.

The significance of this project has led Nelson Mandela, as Patron of Mineseeker to make an impassioned plea to businesses and Captains of Industry to join, with him :
"World business leaders and statesmen to support a new technology that can hasten our quest to rid the world of landmines."

The Mineseeker Foundation is a non-profit organisation, allied with the British Ministry of Defence and endorsed by the United Nations. Together, these powers have developed and tested a breakthrough technology that will revolutionise the international quest to rid the world of landmines. Mineseeker will work to detect and map landmines utilising airships and the foremost ground-penetrating radar system. The system is sponsored by Virgin Atlantic and the British Ministry of Defence and has been successfully tested in Kosovo.

In support of its mine detection programme, Mineseeker has drawn up an Empowerment Blueprint. This programme will be initiated through agricultural sustainability, and will be implemented first in Mozambique. Complimenting foundations, businesses and humanity leaders are now working together to achieve these aims, and a preliminary schedule of events and action for 2008 has been arranged.
