ICBL Youth Ambassador and Cambodian landmine survivor Song Kosal started the Youth Against War Treaty in 1998. From 1998-2001, youth in 42 countries collected over a quarter of a million petition signatures, urging the United States government to join the Mine Ban Treaty. These signatures were delivered to the Bush administration in March 2001.India and Pakistan have been chosen as the new Youth Against War Treaty targets. Both countries have used landmines in three wars with each other and recently planted landmines along their shared border. The media has reported both civilian and military casualties from these newly planted mines.
