Erin Hunt is the Program Manager at Mines Action Canada. She has been working in humanitarian disarmament in various capacities since 2006 and doing public education on the Ottawa Treaty banning landmines since 2003. 
 
Erin's areas of expertise include the humanitarian impact of landmines and cluster munitions, particularly in Syria and Yemen, as well as the Ottawa Treaty, the Convention on Cluster Munitions, ongoing diplomatic efforts to prohibit autonomous weapons systems (killer robots) and nuclear weapons.  She can speak about Canadian policies on disarmament issues more broadly.
 
Erin has a master’s degree in Human Security and Peacebuilding from Royal Roads University..
