Mine/UXO Clearance

Indigenous Capacity Building

The RONCO approach is developmental. It builds indigenous capacity to carry out mine clearance operations, provides medical and logistics support, handles the mine detecting dogs, and provides support services for dogs and handlers. RONCO expatriates provide initial training and supervision that is eventually turned over to highly trained locals. RONCO's approach aims at training local technicians and developing institutional capability so that demining can continue in the host country without the need for foreign assistance. RONCO takes extreme pride in our success with building capacity in the country concerned.

RONCO has developed indigenous capacity in many countries to the point that they possess fully certified international capability. We regularly utilize this RONCO-developed talent on international clearance operations. For example, RONCO Mozambican staff worked in Kosovo, Bosnians in Guantanamo Bay, and Croats in Namibia. Please see the Oman example for a step-by-step illustration of how RONCO is able to successfully leave a fully indigenous capacity in the country concerned.
