Geneva Call sent a small international mission to meet the Moro
Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) in Central Mindanao and in Manila,
Philippines from 7 - 8 April 2002. The mission successfully
demonstrated, for the first time at an international level, that nonstate
actors (NSAs) could be engaged in an alternative mechanism for
a mine ban. Although it is difficult to verify compliance to the Deed of
Commitment, the mission showed that there is a different and noncoercive
way to deal with NSAs.
