[Jacaylbaro]

A study led by Dr Laura Hammond, Head of the Department of Development Studies at SOAS, University of London, has reported perceived improvement in safety, security and wellbeing in Somaliland as a result of the work being carried out by the Danish Demining Group.

 

The report Safety, Security and Socio-Economic Wellbeing in Somaliland was produced for the Danish Demining Group (DDG), a Humanitarian Mine Action and Armed Violence Reduction Unit of the Danish Refugee Council, with support from the Geneva International Centre for Humanitarian Demining (GICHD), an international organisation based in Switzerland, which provides advice and capacity development support, undertakes applied research, disseminates knowledge and best practices and develops standards.

 

The aim of the study was to evaluate the links between security and economic well-being, looking specifically at the work carried out by the Danish Demining Group. The report was based on quantitative research with 378 households as well as qualitative interviews in 12 communities in Somaliland in March 2013.
