In cooperation with the Benin Action Network on Small Arms (RASALEB), the Parliamentary Forum on SALW organised a seminar on the ATT for legislators and journalists in Benin. The majority of participants became members of the Forum and the Forum will continue to work with them in order to support the legislators to promote a speedy ratification of the Treaty. Benin is one of the focus countries included for national activities under the project to 'Enhance ATT and UNPoA Implementation by South-South Parliamentary Exchange and Cooperation.'
