Existing and active low-energy Accelerator-Based BNCT programs worldwide will be reviewed and compared. In particular, the program in Argentina will be discussed which consists of the development of an Electro-StaticQuadrupole (ESQ) Accelerator-Based treatment facility. The facility is conceived to operate with the deuteroninduced reactions ⁹Be(d,n)¹⁰B and ¹³C(d,n)¹⁴N at 1.45 MeV deuteron energy, as neutron sources. Neutron production target development status is specified. The present status of the construction of the new accelerator development laboratory and future BNCT centre is shown.
