The Department of State Bureau of International Security and Nonproliferation awarded a $100,000 cooperative agreement to the World Institute for Nuclear Security under the Global Threat Reduction program (CFDA 19.033) to conduct a workshop in South Africa from August 2022 through December 2023. The workshop will convey the importance of implementing a robust security culture and structured employee engagement as foundations for effective insider threat mitigation at nuclear facilities. The Global Threat Reduction program supports reducing threats from terrorist organizations or states of concern through nuclear security initiatives. This particular award will help advance nuclear security in South Africa by training facility personnel on insider risk reduction best practices.
