COUNTRY INSIGHTS SERIES


Since 2014, the Government  of the Federal Republic
of Somalia, in cooperation with UNIDIR, implemented
a national Weapons  and  Ammunition   Management
(WAM)  baseline assessment in Somalia. Led by national
authorities, in particular the Office of National Secu-
rity, this iterative inter-ministerial consultative process
on WAM   facilitated the design of national policies and
plans, identified areas to be strengthened and present-
ed recommendations  for policy and programmatic re-
sponses to build a national framework governing the
management   of arms and ammunition. The consulta-
tions were held in an inclusive manner to build consen-
sus and ownership at all levels of the federal system and
foster political commitment for coherent nation-wide
implementation. International partners, including do-
nor states, UN agencies, and non-govern- mental or-
ganizations also took part in the consultations given
their key support role to current WAM activities and to
future WAM  strategies within the context of the New
Partnership and the Transition Plan.

This publication is an extract of the baseline assess-
ment  report developed in partnership with the Somali


national authorities. It is a snapshot of the main find-
ings and options identified for enhancing WAM in the
Federal Republic of Somalia. It presents the status of
strategic and operational WAM efforts   as identi-
fied in Somalia during the baseline assessment, and
highlights the practical recommendations provided
to the national authorities.
