Description:

As a region that plans to introduce its first nuclear power plants within the decade, Southeast Asia presents its own unique features in fostering regional cooperation in the nuclear field. While the Fukushima Daichii nuclear disaster last year has slowed nuclear plans in the region, a number of Southeast Asian countries continue to look to nuclear energy as part of their energy mix. This seminar examines the benefits and challenges of a nuclear cooperative approach in the context of closer Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) integration and provides recommendations on the way forward.

Please join us! Coffee and tea provided. Everyone is welcome, but admittance will be on a first come–first served basis.
