Caravan to move in states, telling people to not acquire arms New Times 25/03/13 – The South Sudan Bureau for Community Security and Small Arms Control and UNDP’s Community Security and Arms Control are launching on Thursday an awareness campaign titled Community Secuirty Caravan in Bor, Jonglei State, to prepare citizens for disarmament. The sensitization campaign uses education and entertainment to increase knowledge, stimulate dialogue, and positively change the long-held socio-cultural tradition about the need to own firearms, UNDP said in a media advisory. The “Caravan” initiative will run in all the ten states of South Sudan to dissuade people from acquiring arms as well as encourage those who already have guns to peacefully surrender them to the state. Jonglei State Governor Kuol Manyang Juuk will officially flag off the caravan in Bor’s Freedom Square.
