COUNTRY INSIGHTS SERIES


In July and August 2018, the Government of Burkina
Faso in cooperation with UNIDIR implemented a na-
tional Weapons and Ammunition Management   (WAM)
baseline assessment in Burkina Faso.

Led by national authorities, in particular the National
Commission  for the Fight against the Proliferation of
Small Arms (CNLPAL), the objectives of this round of
consultations were to establish a baseline of existing
WAM   activities and procedures in place, to identify ar-
eas to be strengthened, and to present recommenda-
tions for policy and programmatic responses to build
a national framework governing the management  of
arms and ammunition.

The series of consultations offered the opportunity for
representatives, experts and practitioners from various
institutions and security agencies within Burkina Faso
to engage in dialogue, build trust, and improve needed
cooperation between them to design and implement a
strong national WAM framework.

The exchanges and information provided in the course
of the national consultation and bilateral meetings with
senior representatives of relevant national institutions
with WAM  oversight, were consolidated into a report
and shared with the Government  of Burkina Faso to
support its efforts in improving its national weapons
and ammunition framework.
