Coalition

The Aotearoa New Zealand Cluster Munition Coalition (ANZCMC) is a national network of 24 local non-governmental organizations establishment on 22 March 2007 in support of the international call to stop cluster munitions from harming civilians. Mary Wareham is the group’s coordinator.

In 2007-2008, the ANZCMC  worked to ensure that the New Zealand government took strong leadership in the “Oslo Process” to create an international instrument banning cluster munitions and requiring assistance to cluster munition survivors and clearance of contaminated areas. In 2009, the coalition campaign for New Zealand to swiftly ratify the 2008 Convention on Cluster Munitions and enact strong implementing legislation. Since 2010, the ANZCMC has worked for universalization of the Convention on Cluster Munitions, especially in the Pacific, and its effective implementation.

With the assistance of a range of partners, the ANZCMC has engaged in several creative actions, including hosting the global civil society delegation to the crucial Wellington Conference on Cluster Munitions in February 2008. To join the coalition, which meets regularly in Wellington, please contact any member or ANZCMC coordinator Mary Wareham
