 lications\, International Atomic Energy Agency \nVienna International Cent
 re\, PO Box 100\, A-1400 Vienna\, Austria*\n\n\nPromotion of nuclear appli
 cations for peaceful purposes and related capacity building is among the m
 issions of the IAEA. Hereby\, accelerator applications is one of the thema
 tic areas\, where the IAEA supports its Member States in strengthening the
 ir capabilities to adopt and benefit from the usage of accelerators\, incl
 uding synchrotron light sources. For this purpose\, the IAEA Physics Secti
 on implements various activities to enhance utilization of light sources b
 y enabling facility access for scientists from developing countries throug
 h bilateral as well as Collaborating Centre agreements with a number of li
 ght sources and through technical support granted through the Technical Co
 operation Program. \nIn this context\, the IAEA has recently approved the 
 five-year Interregional TC project INT0104 "Increasing Transnational Coope
 ration between Light Sources and Diversifying the User Base." This project
  aims to broaden geographical access to synchrotron light sources and enha
 nce technical expertise among Member States. By fostering collaboration an
 d knowledge exchange\, it seeks to empower developing Member States to add
 ress industrial and technological challenges\, thereby strengthening educa
 tional institutions\, economies\, social structures\, and global competiti
 veness. \nA report on IAEA’s activities in support of research and appli
 cations using synchrotron-light facilities and increasing their transnatio
 nal cooperation will be presented.\n\nhttps://events.saip.org.za/event/249
