The IAEA addresses these challenges through several approaches:
1. Research and Development: The IAEA supports R&D activities to understand the properties and behavior of nanomaterials in nuclear applications. 2. Capacity Building: The IAEA helps member states build capacity in nanotechnology through training programs and technical assistance. 3. International Collaboration: The IAEA fosters international collaboration to share knowledge, experience, and best practices in the safe use of nanotechnology. 4. Regulatory Guidance: The IAEA develops and disseminates regulatory guidance to ensure the safe use of nanotechnology in the nuclear sector.
