In October 2003, the UN Children's Fund (UNICEF) completed a set of seven MRE standards, which were formally adopted as International Mine Action Standards (IMAS) in June 2004. In 2005, UNICEF in partnership with the Geneva International Centre for Humanitarian Demining (GICHD), published a series of Best Practice Guidebooks on behalf of the United Nations to support the MRE IMAS.
The International Mine Action Standards for Mine Risk Education - Training Manual has been produced by the GICHD and UNICEF to facilitate the implementation of the IMAS on MRE through training. It consists of seven manuals:
Needs Assessment for Risk Education
Planning Risk Education
Communication in Risk Education
Community Liaison in Mine Action
Monitoring Risk Education
Emergency Risk Education
Coordinating Risk Education
