Division 5.2.5 Conference for partner countries with advanced export control systems

The project will take the form of one conference in Brussels lasting up to two days. The conference will provide a forum for advanced-level discussions between Union experts and senior-level representatives (in the areas of policy, licensing and enforcement) of beneficiary countries with advanced export control systems.

This conference will give the participating beneficiary countries the opportunity to:

1. (a)

   receive information on the newest developments related to the arms trade (e.g. current procurement channels, the impact of new technologies, and security policy-related issues such as hybrid threats); and

2. (b)

   discuss and exchange views on how recent changes and improvements in arms trade controls can be implemented as part of their own national export control system.
