In September 2019, at the General Conference of the International Atomic Energy Agency Hungary was elected as a member of the Board of Governors. It gives us the opportunity to directly and actively participate in the work of the IAEA at the highest level.
The 63rd Annual Regular Session of the IAEA General Conference will be held from 16 to 20 September 2019 in Vienna, Austria, where high-ranking officials and representatives from IAEA Member States will consider a range of issues. In conjunction with the conference a Scientific Forum — entitled A Decade of Action on Cancer Control and the Way Forward — will be convened.
The OECD Nuclear Energy Agency is collecting views from stakeholders around the world on risk communication and asked member states to publish it on their own communication channels. For the Hungarian Atomic Energy Authority it has a high importance to inform the public, to analyse and communicate risks, moreover HAEA follows closely the international activities related to this topic. To meet the requirements of openness, we also make the survey available.
