Division 4.2.3 Project results
United Kingdom
The project will:
- (a)
document, in situ, the physical evidence of diverted or trafficked conventional weapons and ammunition in conflict-affected regions;
- (b)
verify and develop illicit trafficking cases from evidence gathered by CAR, by organisations with standing information-sharing agreements with CAR, and, as appropriate, other organisations, on diverted or trafficked conventional weapons and ammunition across all regions;
- (c)
provide concrete visual evidence of diverted or trafficked conventional weapons and ammunition, including photographs of items, serial numbers, factory marks, boxes, packing lists, shipping documents, and end-user certification;
- (d)
generate textual accounts of illicit activity, including trafficking routes, actors involved in diversion or illicit transfer and assessments of contributing factors (including ineffective stockpile management and security and deliberate, state-orchestrated illicit supply networks);
- (e)
upload the aforementioned evidence onto the iTrace information-management system and online mapping portal for full public dissemination.
