From Sitges to Dehra-Dun: a personal view of the needs and situation of neutrino nucleus interactions

The neutrino oscillation phenomena in solar, atmospheric and accelerator based experiments have been solidly established during the last decade, recent experiments are aiming at more precise measurements which requires better understanding of the interaction of neutrinos with matter. The International Workshop on Neutrino-Nucleus Interactions in the Few-GeV region (NUINT) is a series of workshops concentrating on low-energy (few GeV), neutrino-nucleus interactions. The goal of this series is to bring theorists and experimentalists from the nuclear and high-energy communities together to address the many challenges to understanding these complex interactions. NUINT workshop series was initiated in KEK (Japan) ten years ago with the goals of understanding the neutrino interactions and its applications to accelerator based and atmospheric neutrino oscillation experiments. An overview of the situation after the last Nuint workshop is discussed in this paper.
