Conference Scope
GLOBAL 2011 is the
10th conference after GLOBAL2009 in Paris. Based on the long-term
needs to realize sustainable energy and mitigate the climate change,
last conferences were sucessfully promoted the global initiatives of
‘nuclear renaissance E However, the severe accident at the Fukushima
Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant destroyed its trend due to reveal the
vulnerability of nuclear power plants and betray public trust in
nuclear safety. We offer our deepest condolences to all affected by the
tragic chain of events following the devastating earthquake and
consequent tsunami attacked east Japan on March 11, 2011.
The Fukushima Daiichi accident is the third serious Nuclear Power Plant accident in the world, followed by TMI and Chernobyl, giving enourmous impact on nuclear politics in Japan and around the globe. It is important to draw lessons and share them globally, based on the technical, scientific and social sequences experienced the Fukushima Daiichi accident; even in the accident was triggered by a historically unprecedented scale of disaster; huge earthquake and tunami. We should take measures; ‘never such accident occur anywhere in the world E
GLOBAL 2011 should be the opportunity to discuss medium- and long-term atomic energy and nuclear fuel cycle forecasts after the Fukushima Daiichi accident across nations and beyond generations. How to overcome the accident and recover the public trust is the worldwide big concerns. Various suggestions and discussions are welcome in GLOBAL 2011 special sessions.
