This panel will summarize key NEA activities relevant to the reactor physics community. We'll delve into past and ongoing efforts of the Working Party on Scientific Issues and Uncertainty Analysis of Reactor Systems (WPRS), the Working Party on Nuclear Criticality Safety (WPNCS), and the Working Party on International Nuclear Data Evaluation Co-operation (WPEC). Panelists from NEA and collaborating institutions will share their experiences, insights, and lessons learned from years of coordinating these efforts. We'll also provide a closer look at some ongoing projects.
