Governments, the ICBL and international organizations gather each year in a mine-affected country or in Geneva, to assess progress and address challenges in universalizing and implementing the Mine Ban Treaty. Civil society actively participates in those Meetings of the States Parties. The ICBL delegation is comprised of experts, grassroots campaigners and landmine survivors from all over the world. With an official observer status, the ICBL delivers statements in the plenary room, organizes side events and feeds information to the media.
The following pages include the daily or thematic updates, all ICBL statements, background documents, information for the media, lists of side events and links to official documents for every Meeting of the States Parties since 1999.
