The National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) and the European Commission Joint Research Centre recently held a pilot training course in Tbilisi, Georgia, to further develop technical capabilities to support nuclear forensics investigation.
The four-day program covered crime-scene management and techniques to gather additional information about detected material as well as the legal framework and processes needed to investigate nuclear smuggling in Georgia.
Representatives from the Georgia’s Ministry of Internal Affairs and Ministry of Environment Protection and Agriculture participated in the event. An observer from the International Atomic Energy Agency also attended.
Georgian participants provided NNSA with feedback on the training course.
“The workshop helped foster a better understanding of the technical measurements that best support Georgia’s prosecutorial needs, as well as the practical considerations associated with communications among the relevant stakeholders,” NNSA said in a press release. “Lessons learned from this pilot will be incorporated into the training curriculum.”
