Renate Czarwinski, IRPA 16 Program Chair
The IRPA 16 Congress to be held in Orlando, Florida, 7–12 July 2024 is an important international conference, attracting radiation protection practitioners from around the world. This is an opportunity to share practices, reconnect with colleagues and friends, and build your network.
For this congress, the topical area of Communication, Stakeholder Involvement, Education, and Training aims at sharing experiences in interacting with the public and developing the capacity to appropriately apply the radiological protection system. Two sessions will be dedicated to education and training, one session will address risk perception and communication, and one session will share experiences on stakeholder involvement and radiological protection culture.
The organizers received 86 abstracts for the main topical area Communication, Stakeholder Involvement, Education, and Training, with only 20 selected as oral presentations. The remainder, evaluated as high quality by the Programme Committee, will be offered as poster presentations.
Speakers from nine different countries and two international organisations (IRPA and IAEA) will be giving presentations addressing general topics on education and training and communication as well as their application in specific domains such as medical, waste management, legacy sites, or environmental monitoring.
Join us in July for an opportunity to learn from your colleagues around the world.
