Theme

Building a human resource development system and network for the recovery from a radiation disaster

Objectives

  The objective of this symposium is to consider both the positive prospects and potential challenges for building a human resources development system for the renaissance from a radiation disaster by bringing together and fostering discussion among industry, academia and government both domestically within Japan and internationally beyond its borders.

  The intent of our program, in conjunction with our partners in industry, academia and government has been to foster human resources with the ability to lead the renaissance from a radiation disaster.

Realizing the goals of this program would not be possible without the opportunity to conduct internships and training at business enterprises and research institutions, government agencies and international organizations. For this we are sincerely grateful.

  As we move forward, it is necessary to implement a permanent, industry, academia and government network able to support the development of these human resources both academically and practically. Within our established network which we are continually working to expand, our graduates with their career paths in mind, have become active members of both domestic and international professional organizations and business enterprises.

  The cultivation of a radiation security and protection culture in the Asian region has been promoted by our program through its efforts to recruit and enroll students from countries throughout Asia. These countries are undergoing remarkable levels of development and ensuring that their students have a viable career path within industry, academia or government is an essential issue that we recognize as one of the foundational missions of Â鶹AV.
