  • Optimizing fusion energy R&D: Ensuring the effectiveness of research and development programs by leveraging existing facilities and planning for new ones.
  • Identifying technology gaps: Collaboratively pinpointing engineering challenges and developing international strategies to address them.
  • Establishing effective regulations: Fostering discussions on creating robust regulatory frameworks for fusion energy.
  • Encouraging public engagement: Increasing youth involvement and promoting gender equality in the fusion energy sector.
  • Integrating fusion into energy markets: Supporting the incorporation of fusion technologies into existing energy systems and infrastructure.

The meeting in Rome will serve as a platform to solidify global commitments under the WFEG framework. The IAEA, in collaboration with its Member States and other partners, will organize periodic WFEG gatherings to monitor progress, ensure high-level political engagement, and promote collaborative actions in the realm of fusion energy.
