En 1998, après la Convention sur l'interdiction de l'emploi, du stockage, de la production et du transfert des mines antipersonnel et sur leur destruction (aussi appelée la Convention d'Ottawa), le Programme des jeunes ambassadeurs pour l'action contre les mines (PJAAM) a été lancé « pour créer une action communautaire durable de soutien à l'éradication de la souffrance causée par les mines terrestres, pour garder « la question de celles-ci présente à l'esprit du public canadien » et, plus particulièrement, pour déployer des JA dans tout le Canada « afin de sensibiliser les jeunes Canadiens à la catastrophe mondiale permanente des mines terrestres(5) » . Aujourd'hui, « le PJAAM est un programme de stages dans le cadre duquel de jeunes professionnels exécutent des programmes d'éducation et de sensibilisation sur la question des mines terrestres dans des collectivités de toutes les régions du Canada(6) » . Le PJAAM est supervisé par un comité directeur composé de représentants d'ILX, d'AMC et de la CRC et il est dirigé par une équipe de deux à trois employés qui se trouvent dans les bureaux d'AMC, à Ottawa. 1, record 1, French, - Programme%20des%20jeunes%20ambassadeurs%20pour%20l%27action%20contre%20les%20mines
