Overall, the results are encouraging. In the past decade, over 2.2 million anti-personnel mines, 250,000 anti-vehicle mines and 17 million other explosives left over from wars have been removed.  But there is still a long way to go, especially in aiding landmine survivors:

Victim assistance has made the least progress of all the major sectors of mine action, with funding and action falling far short of what was needed.
