The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) is organizing this conference to reflect on and share experiences related to the pivotal role that human and organizational aspects play in nuclear safety.
The special focus of the conference will be on safety culture and the past 30 years of developments in this area and looking forward to future needs in this field.
This conference will share the knowledge accumulated in the area of safety culture as well as human and organizational factors (HOF), and will allow participants to take a step back and reflect on what the nuclear community has learned in the 30 years since the Chernobyl accident. In particular, the conference will review the developments since the last safety culture conference held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in 2002, and will also take a look forward to the more recent lessons learned from the Fukushima Daiichi accident.
