In response to a need to develop consistent procedures in mine action,
the United Nations (UN) began a consultation process to develop the
new mine action standards. The result is a set of guidelines,
"International Mine Action Standards" (IMAS), covering management
and monitoring, mine stockpile destruction, mine risk education and
mine and unexploded ordnance clearance, that are now the standards
in force for all UN mine action operations. Once a national government
adopts the standards, the IMAS become legally binding guidelines for
all mine action operations.
