Speaker
Description
Mali signed the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty on February 18, 1997 then ratified it on August 4, 1999. In 2005 and within the framework of the activities of the International Monitoring System (IMS), the CTBTO implemented a National Data Centre (NDC) at the Direction Nationale de la Géologie et des Mines (DNGM) of Mali with partners such as the Malian Radiation Protection Agency (AMARAP). The DNGM is responsible for the seismic, infrasound and hydroacoustic monitoring of ISS.
The main mission of AMARAP is to ensure the protection of population and environment against the harmful effects of ionizing radiation. It is the only structure in Mali able to ensure the radionuclide monitoring in the air. After the recent workshop in which AMARAP was represented entitled "2022 National Data Centers Workshop in Toledo (Spain) in October", AMARAP began the process of setting up a radionuclide and noble gas monitoring station to revitalize the national NDC team. More details will be in whole presentation.
