RECSA capacity-building training for South Sudan’s Bureau for Community Security and Small Arms Control
On 18 – 22 February 2019, the Regional Centre for Small Arms (RECSA) held a week-long capacity building workshop for members of South Sudan’s Bureau for Community Security and Small Arms Control (BCSSAC) in Juba. The workshop was funded by the African Development Bank and sought to develop the technical skills and expertise of the Bureau Staff.
The 'Strengthening Regional and National Institutions for Reduction of Proliferation of Small Arms project', implemented by RECSA, with the financial support of the African Development Bank, addresses issues of fragility in the Horn of Africa and the Great Lakes region. This project aims to address the need to strengthen the capacity of Member States in the field of arms management. Particularly, the project supports strengthening the capacity of RECSA to coordinate SALW interventions and improved arms management by Member States (Somalia, South Sudan, Central African Republic and Democratic Republic of Congo). The project started on 2018 and will be implemented until 2022.
