Impact it is

Since we first met with the artists, we’ve been discussing ideas for the name of the exhibit. We’ve created list after list of key words, including some painfully UNDPese terms (capacity development may be a good thing but it just doesn’t roll off the tongue). No matter what other ideas people had, we always came back to the essence of what mine action is about: Impact.

Whether it’s clearing mines and ERW, educating people about their risks, or assisting survivors, the ultimate result has a major impact on the lives of ordinary people living in mine-affected areas. And this is exactly what the artworks will have: Impact. So Impact it is.

Next step: Design the posters.
