As part of an advocacy campaign titled "With a Military Uniform... I Carry My Weapon" implemented by the Borderless Youth Development Organization in partnership with the Police Department of Taiz Governorate, which aims to regulate weapon carrying in the governorate, an open dialogue was held today between local communities, local authority leadership, security, and military officials to discuss the regulation of weapon carrying in Taiz Governorate.

The objective of this dialogue is to create a partnership and shared understanding between community members, official authorities, security, and the military in order to improve the security situation in the governorate by regulating the random carrying of weapons. This will be achieved by generalizing and obligating all military and security personnel to not carry weapons without wearing the military uniform.
