The Organization of American States (OAS), in cooperation with the New York-based Achilles Track Club, will support three landmine victims from Ecuador who will run in the 2006 New York City Marathon on November 5.
The Ecuadorian athletes – Angel Pulla, Eduardo Seis and José Paez – will compete among more than 400 physically challenged athletes from 30 countries in the world’s largest marathon in this category.
“This is a good example of cooperation between a private, nongovernmental organization and an international organization such as the OAS,” said Ricardo Corral of the Achilles Track Club, coordinator of the Ecuadorian delegation in New York City.
Sports therapy has been increasingly used to support landmine victims around the world. Beginning last year, the OAS Mine Action Program has sponsored the participation of landmine victims in the New York City Marathon.
The Achilles Track Club was founded in 1983 by Dick Traum, an athlete with disabilities, to promote sports for the physically disabled. Achilles has 40 chapters in the United States and more than 110 throughout the world, including Norway, New Zealand, Mongolia, Dominican Republic, Russia, South Africa, Vietnam and Japan.
The OAS Mine Action Program is currently supporting mine clearance, mine-risk education and landmine victim assistance in several countries, including Colombia, Ecuador, Honduras, Nicaragua and Peru. Since 1997, OAS programs in these countries have helped more than 900 landmine survivors gain access to physical and psychological rehabilitation services, as well as to post-rehabilitation vocational training.
Four countries in the Americas – Costa Rica, Honduras, Guatemala and Suriname – have completed demining activities through the OAS Mine Action Program and are considered landmine-safe.
