"舉手!反地雷"---簽名連署&捐舊鞋反地雷

地雷的議題極少在台灣社會引起關注,社會大眾對於地雷所造成的傷害也不盡瞭解。伊甸基金會自加入反地雷組織以來,在台灣宣導反地雷不遺餘力。

壹、時間:100613 ~100 619(全天候開放,因該大樓早晚都有研究生進出,因此不會鎖門;但5點後會將模擬雷區示範用地雷以及裝備收起來,建議大家可於上午8點至下午5點之間前往)
貳、地點:東吳大學第二教研大樓 1
參、主辦單位:伊甸社會福利基金會
協辦單位:東吳大學人權學程
補助單位:加拿大地雷行動組織(Mines Action Canada)

肆、活動內容包括:
一、   照片展:展示國際間以及台灣地雷受害者、地區以及地雷的照片。透過這些震撼的照片與雷傷者故事分享,讓觀展人能體會地雷在世界上造成的威脅。
二、  雷區模擬:展示雷區環境模型、警示標誌與假地雷。透過擬真的模型,讓觀展人能夠親身體會地雷環境,以及目前台灣排雷工作的進行方式。
三、 連署活動:台灣現行地雷管制條例仍允許政府儲存以及戰爭時使用地雷,伊甸呼招大家"舉手!反地雷",藉由連署活動讓政府知道我們的關心。
四、馬祖塘岐國小學生透過繪圖表達對地雷危害的認識。
五、 鞋堆運動:盛行於國際間,藉由堆疊鞋子,紀念因地雷失去四肢的人們。

    地雷做為戰爭下產物,但戰爭時或結束後,易佈難除的地雷往往對無辜的百姓造成傷害。在台灣,因其特別的歷史背景,過去在金門與馬祖沿岸佈滿地雷,現今在政府邁向和平、重視人權的理念下,已逐步清除金馬兩地之地雷。但對生於和平環境的年輕學子來說,上一輩曾被地雷所傷害或是戒慎恐懼與地雷共存已是不可想像之情境。安不忘危,我們應以歷史為戒,透過影像以及實體的展示,讓社會大眾能對地雷或戰爭的傷害有所認識,對和平環境心存感恩。
伍、地圖及交通:

[Campaign to ban landmine in Taiwan]Eden visited Matsu in May

Eden Social Welfare Foundation visited Matsu (Lienchiang County), one of the two mined offshore islands in Taiwan from 24 to 25 May. This is the first time that ICBL members ever visited the island.

Massive antipersonnel landmines were laid on the rocky cliff shorelines of Matsu to prevent the invasion of troops from Mainland China, caused damages to Matsu residents, prevented community developments and hindered ecological protection. The purposes of the trip were to collect first-hand information for Landmine Monitor research project and to advocate for mine-ban issues.

Eden’s representatives were received by Legislator of Lienchiang County, Mr. Tsao Erh-Chang and the County Magistrate Mr. Yang Sui-sheng. In-dept interviews were conducted with County officials, the demining unit within Matsu Defense Command, village and township heads and representatives, and landmine survivors. Strong support for mine-ban movements has been expressed by Legislator Tsao and County Magistrate Yang.

Mr. Wang shih-chien, the Commissioner of Department of Civil Affairs, Lienchiang County (Matsu).
 
According to the Ministry of National Defense, the demining for the total 154 registered minefields has been completed early this year. However, during the interviews, local heads and representatives suspected that some areas were not registered as minefields according to the military record and landmines might still remain. The demining unit responded that further detection and examination for the suspected area is planned in the near future to ensure that Matsu will be mine-free before 2003, the legal demining deadline in Taiwan.

In addition, Eden’s representatives organized an awareness-raising activity in a local primary school. More than 30 students joined this activity. Through games, presentations and other creative methods, students developed an understanding on the international humanitarian law and would like to show their support for the mine-ban movements by drawing.
