As part of the project to 'Support to the ratification and future implementation of the ATT - Improving understanding of the Treaty', UNREC organised a workshop on the ATT for African Small Island Developing States (SIDS). The workshop aimed to identify specific challenges and needs of represented States in the implementation of the ATT and to facilitate the identification and development of measures that address these needs and challenges. Identified key measures include the promotion of the ATT, the transposition of the treaty into national legislation, the identification of specific transfer control measures in particular with regard to transit and trans-shipment of weapons as well as the support in strengthening technical and financial capabilities. The workshop was held in Lomé, Togo.
