Se considera altamente oportuno, apoyar los esfuerzos y nuevas medidas que estén dirigidas a intensificar la cooperación internacional, con la finalidad de prevenir, combatir y erradicar aquellas actividades de intermediación ilícita en el comercio de armas … entre ellas, la celebración de encuentros o reuniones bilaterales y/o regionales entre homólogos encargados de armas, con el propósito de intercambiar experiencias.

Estas reuniones son, en la mayoría de ocasiones, auspiciadas por organizaciones no gubernamentales, con la participación de representantes de la sociedad civil en los foros regionales, que alertan sobre la problemática nacional e internacional en lo referente al tráfico ilícito y manejo de armas de fuego.

It is important to promote international cooperation strategies aimed at preventing, combating and eradicating the illicit trade in arms, such as regional or bilateral meetings where firearm officials can share information and experiences.

Many of these meetings are organised by non governmental organisations. Civil society representatives participate and raise awareness about firearm problems at the national and international levels.
