Amidst modern security challenges and threats, nations worldwide are actively enhancing their self-reliance to mitigate chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) threats. CBRN teams in the U.S. and worldwide have been established to control incidents and threats related to these materials, whether accidental or deliberate in nature.

 

Nations across the world swiftly responded to these challenges by developing national-level capabilities for their CBRN teams.

 

These capabilities aim to contain CBRN-related incidents, involving the participation of security forces, defense, and interior ministries, as well as civil defense and counterterrorism teams.

mass gatherings.

 

With over a decade of experience, AGC Center's expertise encompasses direct coordination with government programs invested in building these capabilities and specialized U.S. institutions for training, equipping, and enhancing overall security capacities to address these non-traditional challenges. We have provided comprehensive support for these programs in the United States from our headquarters in Washington, D.C., focusing on capacity building for security, health, academic, and industrial institutions in Iraq. This includes equipment provision, training, policy development, curriculum design, and train-the-trainer programs, ensuring full readiness for CBRN response teams across all institutions at the regional and national levels.
