Ammunition stockpile controls:
further steps at the global level

by Holger Anders, researcher at GRIP

19 December 2008

Abstract


Ammunition controls were long neglected in international debates but some progress is made at the United Nations. A UN group of governmental experts reported on problems arising from ammunition stockpiles in surplus in July 2008. The group’s recommendations for further action at national, regional, and global levels were endorsed by the UN General Assembly in a resolution in December 2008. The steps that are taken at the UN have the potential to make an important practical contribution to building capacities for better ammunition stockpile controls.

Key words : Ammunition, UN Process, stock management, technical guidelines
