AERA Hosts Lotus Africaโ€™s Managing Director

In a continuous effort to ensure the protection of the public, workers, and the environment from the harmful effects of ionizing radiation, the Atomic Energy Regulatory Authority hosted executives from Lotus Africa Limited in a productive meeting held at AERA offices on 25 March.

The meeting was part of ongoing regulatory engagements and focused on compliance requirements, regulatory processes, and timelines for key activities, as well as follow-up on recommendations from a recent pre-authorization inspection at Kayelekera Uranium Mine.

These engagements are part of AERAโ€™s continuous oversight to ensure that safety and regulatory requirements are upheld at every stage of mining operations.
AERA emphasized the importance of continued compliance to ensure the safe and secure handling and transportation of radioactive materials and to protect people and the environment.

The Atomic Energy Regulatory Authority (AERA) is proud to announce that two of its officers have successfully completed the 2025-2026 IAEA Postgraduate Educational Course (PGEC) in Radiation, Transport and Waste Safety.

Over the past six months, the officers enhanced knowledge and skills in radiation protection, international safety standards, safe transport of radioactive materials, radioactive waste management, radiation monitoring, and emergency preparedness and response.

The knowledge and skills gained will strengthen AERAโ€™s capacity to effectively regulate the safe use of ionizing radiation in Malawi, contributing to enhanced protection of workers, the public, and the environment.

AERA remains committed to building strong technical capacity and promoting the highest standards of radiation safety and security in the country.

AERA continues to strengthen radiation safety oversight in Malawi.

The Atomic Energy Regulatory Authority (AERA) conducted a pre-authorization inspection at Kayelekera Uranium Mine in Karonga as part of its mandate to ensure the safe and secure use of ionizing radiation.

The inspection, led by the Executive Director, Associate Professor Davies Mweta, provided an opportunity to assess the mineโ€™s preparedness to comply with national regulatory requirements related to radiation protection to both humans and the environment.

During the inspection, officials from AERA reviewed key areas including radiation protection measures for workers, safeguards to prevent radiological contamination, the security and control measures of radiation sources, and systems put in place to protect surrounding communities.

AERA remains committed to protecting people and the environment from the harmful effects of ionizing radiation by ensuring compliance in different sectors, such as mining.

The Atomic Energy Regulatory Authority would like to remind its stakeholders that monitoring of occupationally exposed workers to radiation in the country is mandatory, in accordance with the Atomic Energy Act of 2011 and Regulation 40 of the Atomic Energy Regulations of 2012. Occupationally exposed workers include personnel who work with radiation sources and other nuclear and radioactive materials. Radiation sources include equipment such as X-ray machines, CT scanners, mammography machines, X-ray fluorescence (XRF) machines, nuclear gauges (level, density, or moisture gauges), and well-logging sources used in exploration and mining.

Meanwhile, this service is provided in the country by the National Dosimetry Laboratory (NDL) at AERA. For further information, contact us at mobile numbers 0892 239 222 or 0988 839 222. Alternatively, send an email to [email protected], or write to the Executive Director at the following address:
