COUNTRY INSIGHTS SERIES


In April 2018, the Government of the Federal Repub-
lic of Liberia in cooperation with UNIDIR, implement-
ed a national Weapons and Ammunition  Management
(WAM)  baseline assessment in the Federal Republic of
Liberia. Led by national authorities, the objectives of
this round of consultations were to establish a baseline
of the existing WAM activities and procedures in place,
to identify areas to be strengthened, and to present
recommendations   for policy and programmatic  re-
sponses to build a national framework governing the
management   of arms and ammunition.

The national consultation offered the opportunity for
representatives, experts, and practitioners from various
Liberian institutions and security agencies to engage
in dialogue, build trust, and improve needed coopera-
tion between them to design and implement a strong
national WAM framework. The exchanges and informa-
tion 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 Govern-
ment  of Liberia to support its efforts in improving its


national weapons and ammunition framework.

report delivered to the Liberian national authorities.
