A decision was made that the UNICEF-ANAMA MRE programme should, in its first-phase, target the school teachers (to disseminate MRE among the school children) in the IDP camps and in the border villages with in-depth MRE training and, thereafter, health staff and, last, community volunteers (to disseminate MRE among the community members at large) from the most mine/UXO-contaminated areas. In all, 12 landmine/UXO-contaminated districts and IDP camps were targeted: Fizuly, Beylagan, Agdjabedi, Aghdam, Gedabey, Tovuz, Agstafa, Gazakh, Dashkesan, Khanla, Goranboy, Terter, and Barda (the latter not mine/UXO-affected but having large IDP camps).
