December 11 - 13, 2018 2018-12-11 2018-12-13 America/Toronto Countering Explosive Threat and Demining Conference London, United Kingdom

The inaugural gathering of the world's EOD community

Explosive weapons, both conventional munition or improvised explosive, have become a fact of modern conflict. Behind the conflict, this threat for millions across the globe is, in reality, a fact of life which continues to decimate communities across the world. UNICEF estimates one casualty every 20 minutes caused by explosive weapons.

Responding to this ongoing crisis, the inaugural Countering Explosive Threat and Demining conference, held with support from the UK All Party Parliamentary Group on Explosive Threats, and supported by the Counter-IED UK, representing the UK's Counter-IED supply chain and collaborating with Her Majesty's Government, British Army and security forces, this truly unique forum will bring together key stakeholders and decision makers from the complete, global EOD community.

Led by senior policy drivers from government, NGO's and military and supported by industry leaders across all three pillars of EOD - prepare the force, attack the network and defeat the device - the conference will outline the new, joint approach to countering the explosive threat.
