This policy brief by ENACT reviews that although many African countries have adopted regional and global policies on arms control, the continued illicit proliferation of small arms and light weapons is an indication of wider transnational organised crime on the continent that calls for more attention.

The policy brief also discusses continental initiatives by the African Union to put an end to trade in arms and weapons.
