To end the suffering and to prevent future suffering caused by landmines. The Convention bans the use, stockpiling, production and transfer of anti-personnel mines. In addition, states that accede to the Anti-Personnel Mine Ban Convention (its short formal name) accept that they will destroy both stockpiled and emplaced anti-personnel mines and assist the victims of mines.
