Radiation Protection Authority of Zimbabwe held a two-day meeting about safe technology use that ended Thursday at Bulawayo. The seminar focused on Non-Ionising Radiation safety standards and brought together experts from different sectors. Board Chairperson Anna Nyakabau said the country must balance new technology with public health protection. Workers from telecommunications, healthcare, energy and universities joined the discussions about radiation risks. Officials want Zimbabwe to follow global safety practices for modern communication and medical equipment.
Chief Executive Officer Justice Chiburu explained how the authority teaches people about radiation dangers from everyday devices. The agency provides technical advice for managing health risks from laser equipment, power systems and mobile networks. Medical imaging tools and industrial machines also create radiation exposure that needs careful monitoring. Telecommunications towers and radar systems require special safety rules to protect citizens. Education programs help both workers and the public understand radiation risks.
Zimbabwe expands its use of radiation-producing technology across mobile networks and diagnostic equipment throughout the country. Government officials stress the need for strong rules and teaching programs before problems develop. Safety protocols need regular updates as the nation builds new infrastructure and adopts advanced technologies. Authorities want to protect people who work with radiation equipment and ordinary citizens who live near transmission towers. The seminar highlighted cooperation between different industries to improve radiation safety standards.
