"The System of Radiological Protection and the UN Sustainable Development Goals" Published

The Radiation and Environmental Biophysics open-access paper "The System of Radiological Protection and the UN Sustainable Development Goals" was published 10 September 2024 and is now available.

The 2015 United Nations' 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) encompass broad social, economic, and environmental challenges. This paper discusses the relationship between the current System of Radiological Protection and SDGs. Initially, it suggests an implicit link through analysis based on the International Commission on Radiological Protection's (ICRP) standards. It further advocates for explicit consideration of sustainability in the upcoming ICRP recommendations, encouraging global collaboration in radiological protection to enhance sustainability.
