GFZs are not a panacea or silver-bullet solution to the problem of armed violence. Under certain conditions they can be effective, especially when combined with other gun control and violence prevention and reduction initiatives. GFZs can positively impact levels of gun homicide and injury, gun carrying, social norms and attitudes towards guns, perceptions of security and gun possession for self-protection.
