MIVAC – MINES VICTIMS AND CLEARANCE
MiVac is a voluntary organisation that brings relief to people living in areas affected by mine warfare. Additionally, MiVAC provides a positive focus for those who are aware, and are concerned, about what was left behind at the completion of conflicts or the withdrawal of troops.
MiVAC was formed by Australian Army Engineers and is an Australian registered charity, whose mission is to provide aid to communities of mine and unexploded ordnance (UXO) affected areas through the implementation of water supply, sanitation, health and education projects.
