During the workshop, participants will have the opportunity to learn from the EU experts and gain valuable insights and experiences in IMS implementation.

The DG/CEO extended his gratitude to the experts and assured them of the NNRA's full cooperation in ensuring the success of the project. He stated that he hoped the workshop would facilitate constructive feedback on the questionnaires earlier sent to the experts on the NNRA IMS, thereby leading to effective solutions to address any identified gaps.

The head of the visiting team, Mr. Ivan Lux from ENCO gave an overview of the various topics and areas the workshop would concentrate on and hoped that the IMS knowledge and experience sharing will identify and analyze the gaps identified in the NNRA IMS. He acknowledged the online resource persons and thanked them for their contributions.
