Triennial Technical Meeting of States' Points of Contact for the Incident and Trafficking Database
The purpose of the event is to exchange information between the IAEA Secretariat and Points of Contact (POC) of the Incident and Trafficking Database (ITDB), to review the actions agreed at the last such meeting concerning the operation of the ITDB programme, and to decide on recommendations and actions for the period up to and including 2024. The event will be held in English.
Regular meetings of the designated ITDB POCs provide a forum for exchanging views and experiences on the prevention, detection and response to incidents of illicit trafficking, and other unauthorized activities involving nuclear and other radioactive material out of regulatory control. These meetings, occurring every three years, have become central in reviewing, developing and improving the activities of the ITDB. The meetings also serve as a forum for all participating States to share case studies of incidents reported to the ITDB and best practices for national activities relevant to the scope of the ITDB.
