Description
The Institute of Nuclear Materials Management (INMM) is an international professional society dedicated to “the safe, secure and effective stewardship of nuclear materials and related technologies through the advancement of scientific knowledge, technical skills, policy dialogue, professional capabilities, and best practices.” The Institute executes its mission through six technical divisions, the largest of which is International Safeguards. While the contributions of the Institute’s members are high in impact and global in reach, a key aspect of INMM’s ability to promote the mission and identify the needs of the nuclear materials management community is its ability to effectively communicate. This is reflected in the Institute’s Strategic Plan, including by building and strengthening the relationship between “policy and technical communities” working in the field. In this paper, we will describe how INMM is working to broaden and enhance our communications platforms in service of strengthening international safeguards, developing effective messaging, and identifying methods to meet the evolving needs of the nuclear materials management community. We will describe our vision for INMM communications, and how that vision will impact the existing and emerging nuclear materials stewardship communities.
