Project

Establishment of a National Inventory of Dangerous Pathogens (NIDP) in Sri Lanka

The Netherlands also contributes to the implementation of EU Council Decision 2019/97 in support of the BTWC by assisting selected BTWC States Parties through so-called “National Preparedness Programmes” (NPP) aimed at preventing and responding to attacks involving biological agents. The Netherlands has responded to an assistance request from Sri Lanka, received through the BTWC’s ISU. This project aims to establish a National Inventory of Dangerous Pathogens (NIDP) in Sri Lanka, including training activities to increase awareness among stakeholders on biosecurity and dual use related risks. A first online workshop was organized in May 2022. An in-person training was, consequently, held in Thailand to raise awareness among national stakeholders. A third and last workshop was held in November 17-18, 2022, in Sri Lanka.
