Second International Conference on Climate Change and the Role of Nuclear Power 2023 - Abstract and Paper Submissions

Themes, Topics and Submission of Synopses

For detailed information on the Conference Topics and Submission of Synopses please see para C, D, E, F & G of the Conference Announcement, available under Related Resources. 

The IAEA welcomes high-quality contributions that fall under the umbrella of the four topics listed below:

• Positioning nuclear power in the global clean energy transitions;
• Establishing an enabling environment for nuclear power;
• Releasing the full potential of nuclear energy;
• Mainstreaming nuclear power as a sustainable, low-carbon energy source.

Submission of Synopses

Synopses (approximately 500 to 600 words on one or a maximum of two printed A4 pages, may contain any charts, graphs, figures and references) should give enough information on the content of the proposed paper to enable the Programme Committee to evaluate it. Anyone wishing to present at the conference must submit a synopsis in electronic format using the conference’s file submission system (IAEA-INDICO), which is accessible from the conference web page. The synopsis can be submitted through this system from 9 February 2023 until 28 April 2023. Specifications for the layout will be available on IAEA-INDICO.

The system for electronic submission of synopsis, IAEA-INDICO, is the sole mechanism for submission of contributed synopsis. Authors are encouraged to submit synopsis as early as possible. The IAEA will not accept submissions via email. In addition, authors must register online using the InTouch+ platform (see Section H). The online registration together with the auto-generated Participation Form (Form A) and Form for Submission of a Paper (Form B) must reach the IAEA no later than 28 April 2023.

IMPORTANT: The Programme Committee will consider uploaded synopses only if these two forms have been received by the IAEA through the established official channels (see Section H).

Acceptance of Synopses

The Secretariat reserves the right to exclude synopses that do not comply with its technical or scientific quality standards and that do not apply to one of the topics listed in Section C.

Authors will be informed by 26 June 2023 as to whether their submission has been accepted, either orally or as a poster, for presentation at the conference. Accepted synopses will also be reproduced in an unedited electronic compilation of Synopses which will be made available to all registered participants of the conference.

Authors will be asked to provide an extended synopsis (3 to 5 pages) by 31 July 2023. Longer manuscripts will only be accepted at the discretion of the Secretariat and only in exceptional cases. Guidelines and a template for the preparation and submission of the extended synopsis will be available on IAEA-INDICO.
