Ahead of the Fourth Review Conference (RevCon4) of the UN Programme of Action on Small Arms and Light Weapons (UN PoA) and the International Tracing Instrument (ITI), the Survey launches its Road to #RevCon4 podcast series—a multi-episode series that discusses key trends, challenges, and opportunities across such topics as linking small arms control and development, gender-responsive arms control, trafficking and violence in the Caribbean, privately made and other non-industrial firearms, and demand factors and enablers of illicit small arms and light weapons.

In this last episode of our 'Road to RevCon 4' series, the President of the Fourth Review Conference, Ambassador Maritza Chan, joins Small Arms Survey Director Mark Downes to reflect on the challenges, achievements and surprises of the RevCon, while putting the Conference into the broader perspective of the PoA process, both past and future.
Director Mark Downes sits down with David Atwood, Callum Watson, and Aline Shaban, to discuss how demand has been approached in the early 2000s when the PoA emerged, its relevance today, and how the current RevCon process with inclusion of demand-related provisions could shape the way we approach small arms control.
Director Mark Downes sits down with Dr Joy St John, the executive director of the Caribbean Public Health Agency (CARPHA) and the former Assistant Director General of the World Health Organization (WHO), to discuss small arms trafficking and violence in the Caribbean as a public health crisis, and how this all ties into PoA discussions on the linkages between small arms trafficking and development.
Director Mark Downes sits down with Hana Salama, Researcher in the Gender and Disarmament programme at the United Nations Institute for Disarmament Research (UNIDIR) and Callum Watson, the Small Arms Survey’s Gender Coordinator to unpack questions about gender-responsive arms control and the UN PoA, collaboration on a working paper entitled From Research to Policy: Prospects for Gender-Responsive Small Arms Control, and gender-related discussions in the lead-up to RevCon4.
Director Mark Downes sits down with Small Arms Survey colleagues Nicolas Florquin, Head of Data and Analytics, and researchers Aline Shaban and Yulia Yarina, to discuss issues related to privately made small arms and other non-industrial weapons, and how this all ties into PoA discussions on craft weapons and new technological developments.
Small Arms Survey Director Mark Downes sits down with Julien Joly, Programme Manager at the Small Arms Survey, to discuss the connection between small arms and light weapons control and national development processes.
Director Mark Downes sits down with Emile LeBrun, Senior Advisor at the Small Arms Survey and part of the President-Designate’s team for RevCon4, to talk about the context of the UN PoA and the RevCon process.
