A comprehensive analysis of the highly stratified weapons procurement patterns of government, paramilitary and rebel forces, and civilians demands a broader perspective. To this end, this Issue Brief provides a preliminary conceptual overview of the regional and local dynamics of arms trade and trafficking in Sudan, while clarifying the scale of Sudanese small arms stockpiles.
This preliminary review was originally published by the Small Arms Survey
The CSF, hosted by Saferworld, was established in 2021 to support the aid sector in Sudan to be more conflict sensitive. We provide analysis, convene discussions, share learning, and support capacity focused on those issues of greatest priority for the sector. Together we are building a movement for better aid in Sudan.
