The first phase, which aimed at re-operationalizing the Malian National Commission on SALW (NatCom), resulted in the approval of a National Action Plan (NAP) on SALW in February 2014. The second phase of the project (July 2014 - February 2015) aimed at supporting the Government of Mali to implement its NAP in accordance with international arms control mechanisms. Phase three of the project aims to support the NatCom in the marking and registering of SALW in Mali and the development of standard operating procedures for the management of imported weapons.
