Botswana, SADC Secretariat join the Group of Partners engaged with the Implementation of the Project Support to Southern African states in Nuclear Safety and Safeguards
27 November 2019, Gaborone. For the first time since the start of project MC 5.10/15 B Support to Southern African states in Nuclear Safety and Safeguards, a joint meeting of the project participating countries and of SADC’s Nuclear Regulators Network was attended by representatives of SADC Secretariat and the government of Botswana. Convened by ISTC in Gaborone, just a few days after the decision for an extension of the duration of the project, the meeting took stock of its achievements and allowed deliberations about regional collaboration in harmonising national legislations and strengthening the capacity of specialised authorities responsible for radiation protection, transportation of radioactive materials and building a nuclear safety, security and safeguard architecture.
