Under the supervision of the LMAC and in cooperation with the Spirit of Soccer and with the assistance of Laureus "Sport for Good Foundation", the Balamand University organized training sessions to 24 activists from sports clubs and the National MRE Committee on the means of delivering MRE clinics to children through soccer games from May 19th until May 30th, 2014.

Through these clinics, activists will be able to prepare MRE sessions and alert children to the dangers of living alongside mines/ERWs by teaching them simple and effective lessons that help them recognize and avoid these harmful weapons. The training included visits to three schools and one visit to the BAC in South Lebanon where the NPA teams work.

Among the 24 activists, only 10 were selected to deliver MRE sessions during summer to scouts and to school students for the upcoming scholar year.
