Category: Programme

This axis covers several topics, including management of accident and post-accident situations; radon exposure management; and the management of contaminated sites and soils. The CEPN’s work is specifically aimed at promoting and enhancing the engagement, preparedness, and awareness of all relevant stakeholders, including members of civil society. The CEPN’s involvement in European research networks and projects, as well as its collaborations with Japanese organizations following the Fukushima accident, provide valuable insights for the management of radiological protection in such situations and contribute to training, awareness-raising, and stakeholder engagement initiatives.

Study and Research Programme

Gestion des situations accidentelles et post-accidentelles

• Collect and analyse experience:
  • Analyse the challenges of managing waste and materials resulting from decontamination actions following the Fukushima accident.Analyse the risk management approaches for major industrial accidents.Draw lessons learned in terms of resilience and sustainable development.
• Support institutional and local stakeholders’ preparation for the management of emergency and post-accident situations:
  • Raise awareness of the risks among local stakeholders and identify the regional challenges for post-accident management.Contribute to the development of tools that meet the socio-economic challenges of the territories.Contribute to the reflection on the role and methods of implementing citizen-led measurements
• Contribute to reflections on radiological risk management in the context of armed conflict situations and malicious acts:
  • Analyse the specific radiological protection issues associated with these situations.Contribute to reflections on the relevance, selection and implementation of protective actions.Support training and awareness-raising initiatives to prepare for the management of such situations.

Management of radon exposures

• Support initiatives to raise awareness and develop skills in radon exposure management.
• Contribute to reflexions on indicators of the effectiveness of corrective actions.

Management of Contaminated Sites and Soils

• Contribute to reflections on the implementation of the radiological protection system for the management of contaminated sites and soils.
• Analyse the management approaches for sites contaminated with non-radioactive substances.
