This report examines the key demand factors, actors and markets at the core of the illicit proliferation of small arms and light weapons (SALW) in the Sahel countries of Burkina Faso, Niger and Nigeria. The worsening situation of SALW trafficking, especially at tri-border intersection points, necessitates a coordinated response to effectively control the criminal flow of arms and ammunition.
