- Abstract:
- KRISS, the national metrology institute (NMI) of Korea, is expanding its official development assistance (ODA) in metrology for developing economies, in harmony with the Korean Government’s policy. KRISS’s programme puts emphasis on developing the human resources, strengthening the measurement facilities, and advancing the quality management systems of its partner NMIs. The UNIDO-KRISS project is one of several recent human resources development (HRD) programs. The ultimate goal of the KRISS ODA is to promote the capabilities of its partner NMIs so that they are ready to participate in the International Committee of Weights and Measures mutual recognition arrangement (CIPM MRA), which will in turn play a key role in underpinning the sustainable growth of the developing economies.
