BSA Distinguished Lecture

"Non-Proliferation, Disarmament and the IAEA in Tomorrow's World"

Presented by Jill Cooley, IAEA, Vienna, Austria

Tuesday, September 9, 2008, 4:00 pm — Berkner Hall Auditorium

International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) safeguards have evolved considerably during the last five decades and have become an integral part of the international non-proliferation regime and the global security system. To carry on serving well the international community, they need to continue to move with the times -- especially in light of the renewed interest in nuclear energy and its projected expansion in the coming years, which could bring additional nuclear facilities, material and activities under IAEA safeguards. The projected nuclear ˜renaissance" may pose increased proliferation risks as nuclear material, technology and know-how spread in an increasingly globalized world. The presentation will provide an overview of the IAEA safeguards system and describe current verification challenges and potential new IAEA roles.

Hosted by: Peter Wanderer
