The Kingdom has been participating in discussions on the challenges and benefits of nuclear energy at an international conference in Vienna, the Saudi Press Agency reported on Tuesday.
Representatives from the country’s King Abdullah City for Atomic and Renewable Energy are at the International Conference on Nuclear Knowledge Management and Human Resources Development, which began on Monday and will end on July 5.
Kim Pringle, director of human capacity building at K.A.CARE, underscored the importance of knowledge management and human resource development to address the challenges facing the sector.
She said Saudi Arabia has one of the world’s most transparent and advanced national policies on atomic energy. This was developed to achieve the sustainable development goals of the Kingdom’s Vision 2030.
