Description
Successful implementation of international norms on the effective utilization of radiation sources requires a number of prerequisites at the State level – provision of adequate legal, institutional, financial, technical and human resources. Among these, it is often taken for granted that necessary knowledge and competence do exist per se. However, this is not always the case, just the contrary – time, efforts and resources are frequently wasted because these fundaments are not built solid from inception. Montenegro is a small “non-nuclear” country, with the use of radiation sources being limited to mainly medical applications. Experiences with KM are outlined, with the state university having the central role. The role of networking and international cooperation, particularly with IAEA and EU (the latter in light of the current Montenegro accession process), is emphasized.
