Nuclear
Safety and Regulation
The goal of the Nuclear Safety and Regulation programme is to
assist Member countries in maintaining and further developing
the scientific, technical and regulatory knowledge base
required to assess the safety of nuclear reactors and fuel
cycle facilities.
Nuclear
Energy Development
The goal of the Nuclear Energy Development programme is to
provide authoritative, reliable information on nuclear
technologies, economics, strategies and resources to
governments for use in policy analyses and decision making,
including on the future role of nuclear energy within the
context of energy policies that contribute to sustainable
development.
Radioactive
Waste Management
The goal of the Radioactive Waste Management programme is to
assist Member countries in the area of radioactive waste
management, developing safe management and disposal strategies
for spent fuel, long-lived waste, and waste from the
decommissioning of nuclear facilities.
Radiation
Protection and Public Health
The goal of the Radiation Protection and Public Health
programme is to assist Member countries in the regulation and
application of the radiation protection system by identifying
and addressing conceptual, scientific, policy, operational, and
societal issues in a timely and prospective fashion, and
clarifying their implications.
Nuclear Law
and Liability
The goal of the Nuclear Law and Liability programme is to
foster the harmonisation of national legislation governing the
peaceful uses of nuclear energy, and in particular to
contribute to the world-wide harmonisation of nuclear liability
legislation and the strengthening of treaty relations among
interested countries to deal with liability and compensation
for nuclear damage.
Nuclear
Science
The goal of the Nuclear Science programme is to help Member
countries to identify, collate, develop and disseminate basic
scientific and technical knowledge used to ensure safe,
reliable and economic operation of current nuclear systems and
to develop next generation technologies.
The
Data Bank
The mission of the Data Bank is to be the international centre
of reference for its Member countries with respect to basic
nuclear tools, such as validated computer codes and nuclear
data, and to provide a direct service to its users by
developing, improving and validating these tools and making
them available as requested.
Information
and Communication
The main goal of the NEA in the area of information and
communication is:
-
to provide Member governments and other interested
parties with information resulting from the activities of
the NEA, and
-
to enhance awareness and understanding of the
scientific, technical and economic aspects of the nuclear
option, as well as awareness of the NEA itself.
