Peru
Support for Mine Action
In 2015, international funding toward mine action in the Republic of Peru remained very low, with just one contribution reported from Norway totaling some $120,000.[1]
The government of Peru provided $1.4 million in 2015 to its mine action program.[2] In 2011–2015, Peru contributed nearly 70% of its total mine action budget ($9.1 million). International contributions totaled some $4.4 million, most of which was provided in 2011–2012.
In its second extension request, Peru estimated that a budget of $39 million would be needed to support its mine action program from 2017 to 2024.[3]
