  "text": "The project will increase the capacity of National SALW Commissions and relevant institutions engaged in arms control by providing technical assistance and capacity development while at the same time facilitating information sharing. The project will work closely with the institutions to map their needs and develop the necessary support tools to enable them to further strengthen their capabilities to control conventional arms and their ammunition. At the same time, the project will establish and facilitate a regional information exchange process bringing together representatives of National SALW Commissions and institutions engaged in arms control in order to increase regional cooperation and knowledge sharing. The regional information exchange process will consist of:\nFormal regional meetings of National SALW Commissions twice per year;\nFormalised collection of lessons learned on SALW control in South East Europe;\nDevelopment of South East Europe National SALW legislation compendium; briefing notes and other knowledge products necessary for effective SALW control implementation;\nDevelopment of a regional study on the impact of SALW on domestic and gender based violence;\nDevelopment of an online knowledge sharing platform and web portal which will enable regular knowledge and experience sharing on SALW control projects, activities and interventions;\nFacilitation of bilateral information exchange through organising study visits and experts' exchanges.\nThe formalised collection of lessons learned and the creation of a knowledge base will further enhance the capacity of South East European countries to design, conceptualise and implement SALW control activities while at the same time making them exporters of knowledge to other regions. The considerable experience in South East Europe thus collected will also be of use in other parts of the world.",
