Nuclear technologies are used world-wide to meet some of the fundamental needs of modern daily life. These include access to energy and proper medical care, food production and the management of water resources.
A new video produced and recently released by the IAEA explains how the Agency supports the use of such technologies by providing training and equipment and sharing expertise and knowledge. Entitled, How the Atom Benefits Life, it shows how nuclear applications in water, food, energy and health help ensure that these fundamental needs are met for an ever-growing and developing global population.
