Meetings, Conferences and Symposia
Meetings on Nuclear Safety and Security
An important means of fostering the exchange of safety-related information is the organization of scientific and technical meetings - ranging from large meetings (such as conferences, symposia and seminars) with broad participation to smaller, specialized meetings (such as technical committee meetings) with the participation of selected experts. Information exchanged at such meetings is subsequently made available by the Agency and published either as priced publications - for example, conference proceedings - or in unpriced ones - for example, technical documents (IAEA-TECDOCs).
