The conference will have sections specifically devoted to themes such as energy, health, space, security, environment, material science, preservation and study of cultural heritage. The ANP conference belongs to the series of NPD divisional conferences, comprising the European Nuclear Physics Conference (EuNPC) and the Nuclear Physics in Astrophysics (NPA) Conference.

The application material should include the description of the proposed location and venue, of the participating Universities and Laboratories, the projected costs, the expected financial supports, and the foreseen approximate conference fees.
