Nuclear Back End Webinar Series

This webinar series focuses on nuclear back-end topics: decommissioning of nuclear facilities, management of spent nuclear fuel and radioactive waste, remediation of contaminated land and legacy sites. It supports IAEA Member States in meeting the challenge to ensure the safety, reliability and efficiency of nuclear facilities, operating or newly built, with proper handling of nuclear back-end liabilities.

With 12 webinars, the series aims to provide opportunity to Member States’ relevant organizations to discuss challenging issues in implementation of their nuclear back-end programmes, to learn about good practices and new IAEA publications on the topic. These webinars enable a large number of participants to learn about and discuss relevant topics at both the strategic and operational level, using global expertise and in-depth information based on experiences.
