Disarmament solutions

Disarmament is the process of the separation of weapons and ammunition from demobilized military and paramilitary organisations, often in post-conflict situations.

To be successful, this process involves several key elements, which must be managed concurrently.

Disarmament projects should incorporate embedded systems of work that ensure safety and transparency to both donors and to those surrendering their weapons.
