Small Island Developing States, often referred to as SIDS, the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and how the IAEA can help in these areas were the main topics of discussion during IAEA Acting Director General Cornel Feruta’s visit to New York this week.
Representatives from small island developing States (SIDS) from the Caribbean and the Pacific regions have met from 13 to 17 March 2017 in Sydney, Australia, to finalize the design of a proposed interregional technical cooperation project for SIDS, and to discuss opportunities for partnerships and resource mobilization.
