Keywords:All "Peace & Conflict" reports


This study was commissioned by WORLD VISION Germany and carried out by the Bonn International Center for Conversion (BICC) in close cooperation with the TAE project in Maputo, Mozambique. The main findings of this report were discussed during a stakeholders? workshop in June 2003 in Maputo, Mozambique and the authors would like to thank all participants for their time and input. While many people have contributed to this report, the responsibility for the content lies entirely with the authors, Sami Faltas and Wolf-Christian Paes.
This present Report investigates the ?Tools for Arms? approach in Mozambique and looks into the general preconditions that lead to the project?s success. It also tries to identify weak areas so other actors can learn from this experience and apply it to other contexts. WORLD VISION and BICC jointly hope that this documentation will help encourage other post-war societies to commit themselves more fully to the disarmament of their population and to raise awareness about the immense risks of small arms.
