Learn with APOPO about the downplayed issue of productive lands being still to this day endangered by explosive remnants of war and their unique process of safe demining.
Over 60 countries are still contaminated with hidden landmines and other explosive remnants of war that cause tragic accidents and hamper communities from developing their productive land.
APOPO is a demining center that uses giant rats, nicknamed “HeroRATs”, trained to detect landmines, helping the team to get rid of the deadly devices and give back safe lands to the communities.
This excursion is an unmatched opportunity to encounter the realities of humanitarian demining and the crucial roles of these little rodents.
You’ll observe how the HeroRats are trained to save lives and learn about the mine clearance process in Cambodia.
Ultimately, the most exciting experience is witnessing a HeroRAT in action, sniffing out buried items in a demonstration area.
