Show notes

In this episode we explore the lasting impact of landmines. Across Ukraine, Syria, Myanmar, Afghanistan, and dozens of other conflict-affected countries, landmines and unexploded ordnance continue to kill, injure, and displace civilians long after wars have ended. Fields cannot be farmed, schools cannot reopen, refugees cannot safely return home, and communities remain trapped by the hidden legacy of conflict beneath their feet.This is not only a humanitarian issue. Landmine contamination affects food security, economic recovery, infrastructure development, migration, investment, political stability, and long-term human security. From Ukraine’s agricultural heartlands to villages in Myanmar and post-conflict communities in Syria, explosive remnants of war continue to shape how people live, travel, rebuild, and recover.Today on The International Risk Podcast, we are joined by The HALO Trust Director of Strategy James Denselow. With more than two decades of experience working across conflict and post-conflict environments, including Syria and Lebanon, James has also held roles at Chatham House, Crisis Action, and Save the Children.The International Risk Podcast brings you conversations with global experts, frontline practitioners, and senior decision-makers who are shaping how we understand and respond to international risk.
