The C:PF for Liberia (2026-2030) outlines strategic areas for technical cooperation between
Liberia and the IAEA, where nuclear technology can significantly support national
development. The CPF is aligned with the national ARREST Agenda for Inclusive
Development (2025-2029) and relevant sectoral plans.
The CPF was developed through broad-based consultations involving policymakers and
technical experts across multiple ministries and institutions, including the Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA), Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA), Ministry of Agriculture
(MOA). Ministry of Health (MOH), Ministry of Mines and Energy (MME), JFK Medical
Centre and the University of Liberia. The process was coordinated by the National Liaison
Office and incorporated gender considerations and inclusive stakeholder engagement to reflect
diverse perspectives.
The CPF identifies six priority areas for technical cooperation: (i) nuclear and radiation safety
and security, (ii) food and agriculture (including crop productivity. animal health, soil and
water management, and food safety). (iii) human health and nutrition (including radiotherapy
for cancer care). and (iv) energy and industry.
