Organizations

 

ENEN

The European Nuclear Education Network, ENEN is a nonprofit international organization established in 2003 under the French Law of 1901. The mission of ENEN is the preservation and the further development of expertise in the nuclear fields by higher Education and Training. This objective should be realized through the co-operation between universities, research organizations, regulatory bodies, the industry and any other organizations involved in the application of nuclear science and ionizing radiation.

ENSREG

The European Nuclear Safety Regulators Group is an independent, expert advisory group created in 2007 following a decision of the European Commission. It is composed of senior officials from the national nuclear safety, radioactive waste safety or radiation protection regulatory authorities and senior civil servants with competence in these fields. ENSREG’s role is to help to establish the conditions for continuous improvement and to reach a common understanding in the areas of nuclear safety and radioactive waste management.

ESARDA

ESARDA is an association of European organizations formed to advance and harmonise research and development in the area of safeguards. It also provides a forum for the exchange of information and ideas between nuclear facility operators, safeguards authorities and persons engaged in research and development. ESARDA was formed in 1969 with the purpose of facilitating collaboration in R&D in the field of safeguards and in the application of such R&D to the safeguarding of source and special fissile materials.

EUTERP

The EUTERP Foundation is an independent legal entity set up to provide a centralized European
source of information on radiation protection education and training matters. Main objectives of the
Foundation are to encourage and support harmonization of education and training requirements for radiation protection experts, radiation workers and other radiation protection professionals; to better integrate radiation protection education and training systems into general vocational training and education infrastructures; and to act as a focus for the sharing of information on training events, standards, developments etc.

FORATOM

FORATOM is the Brussels-based trade association for the nuclear energy industry in Europe. FORATOM acts as the voice of the European nuclear industry in energy policy discussions with EU Institutions and other key stakeholders. The membership of FORATOM is made up of 16 national nuclear associations representing nearly 800 firms. FORATOM provides information and expertise on the role of nuclear energy; produce position papers, newsfeeds, responses to public consultations, analyses of public opinion; organize regular networking events like dinner debates, workshops, one-on-one meetings, press briefings and visits to nuclear facilities.

Fusenet

The Fusenet Association is the European Network on Fusion Education. The goal of the network is to
stimulate and coordinate high quality fusion education and make this available to students in an attractive and transparent manner. Presently it comprises over 50 members from 19 different countries, including universities, research organizations and companies that are involved in the development of energy production from nuclear fusion. The Fusenet Association is a legal entity and can apply for funding for its activities on behalf of its members.

IGD-TP

The Implementing Geological Disposal of Radioactive Waste Technology Platform (IGD-TP) was launched in 2009. The main objectives of the IGD-TP are to initiate and carry out collaborative actions in Europe to facilitate the stepwise implementation of safe, deep geological disposal of spent fuel, high-level waste, and other long-lived radioactive waste by solving the remaining scientific, technological and social challenges, and thereby to support waste management programmes in the Member States.
