The Department of Scientific Affairs at the University of Basrah organized a training workshop on chemical risk management in the presence of a number of supervisors and trainees from the university, as well as from the Basra Oil and Gas University and the Southern Technical University.
The workshop aimed to review the basic principles of work in this field to transform the trainees' ideas of chemical security into viable projects.
The workshop, in which a number of specialists attended, included theoretical and practical sessions in chemical laboratories, through which hypothetical security risks will be assessed to provide trainees with practical experience in implementing best practices for chemical risk management.
The coordinator of the Higher Ministerial Committee for the Chemical Risk Management Project, Dr. Baqir Al-Aridi, stated that the ministerial committee supervising the development of safety programs and projects and chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear security will complete the Basrah university training project in three important stages. The second phase is a training workshop, and the third will be the application phase for a period of three months, in which the projects of each university will be presented to improve the ability of the academic sector to continue developing staff to meet the need for human capital in the field of chemical security, and a grant, devices and equipment specialized in this field will be given to each university.
