Abstract
During the ICRP Symposium held in Tokyo (7-9 November 2023) and the Annual Meeting of the Society for Risk Analysis of Japan (SRAJ) held in Sapporo, Japan (11-12 November 2023), a series of discussions with social scientists and Japanese experts highlighted the desire to share on-going reflections on the role of social sciences in the management of the recovery process following the Fukushima accident. In the framework of their formal cooperation, this leads CEPN and Nagasaki University to propose the organization of a workshop devoted to the role of social sciences and humanities in structuring the process of recovery at work in the territories affected by the Fukushima accident.
In order to prepare this workshop an online meeting was held on May 25, 2024, with the participation of 15 scientists (see the list in annex) allowing to get to know each other and to have a first exchange of views on the subject. The programme of this online meeting was divided in three parts (see the detailed programme in annex):
- a series of presentations from CEPN, Nagasaki University, University of Osaka, University of Hokkaido and IRSN to set up the scene;
- a general discussion on the role of social sciences and humanities in the management of the recovery process after Fukushima;
- preliminary proposals for preparing a workshop to be held in October 2024.
This summary highlights the key points presented and discussed during the online meeting.
