Her Majesty Queen Noor of Jordan is Patron and Honorary Chair of LSN, Advisor to the International Campaign to Ban Landmines (ICBL), a member of the Advisory Boards of Adopt-a-Minefield and Marshall Legacy Institute as well as a Patron of the Mineseeker Foundation. She has been a long-term supporter of international efforts to ban landmines since the late 1970’s. Queen Noor was inspired by the humanitarian contribution of Princess Diana, and in 1997 she also became a patron of LSN at the request of founders Ken Rutherford and Jerry White. Some say that Queen Noor took on Princess Diana’s efforts to draw attention to the landmine situation and advocate the landmine ban and, just like the late Princess of Wales, Queen Noor is bringing much needed attention to the issue. In October 1999, Queen Noor accompanied LSN to Vietnam and Cambodia to witness first hand the landmine problems in these countries.
