Gender-responsive Small Arms Control: A Practical Guide

Armed violence is a gendered phenomenon, and addressing it effectively requires programming that is gender responsive. The Small Arms Survey’s Handbook Gender-responsive Small Arms Control: A Practical Guide offers readers concrete suggestions for how to develop and support such programming.

The Handbook outlines gender-related terminology and concepts; describes key global policy instruments and their increasing convergence around gender; highlights the gendered impacts of small arms; applies a gender analysis to the small arms life cycle; and provides a roadmap for mainstreaming gender into the small arms project cycle.
