The Roadmap is a testimony to the consensus among all stakeholders in the Western Balkans on the current challenges, the overall targets to be reached and the timeline of actions to be taken. It provides an overall platform for achieving commonly agreed key performance indicators (KPIs) at the strategic, policy and operational level.
The Western Balkans authorities have agreed to measure the progress of the Roadmap’s implementation through concrete, measurable indicators.
The periodic monitoring of progress against the jointly agreed KPIs and coordination of the implementation of the Roadmap by six beneficiaries is conducted by SEESAC with funding provided by the European Union through its Council Decision (CFSP) 2025/2587 in support of the South-Eastern and Eastern Europe Clearinghouse for the Control of Small Arms and Light Weapons (SEESAC) for the implementation of the Regional Roadmap on combating illicit arms trafficking in the Western Balkans.
To this purpose, SEESAC, in cooperation with the SALW Commissions in the Western Balkans, has established a regional monitoring framework, which follows the Key Performance Indicators and the Roadmap Goals.
