Comprehensive project offering educational materials, lecture courses, computer simulators, and recommendations for regional authorities on nuclear technologies and environmental emergencies. Includes brochures, computer games, and tutorials for effective crisis communication in case of incidents at NPPs. Targeted at NPP staff, the project aims to enhance communication skills and public safety awareness. Supplementary information in Russian and English is available for reference. The project emphasizes the importance of preparedness and effective public communication during radiation emergencies.

Far East. Nuclear Technologies and Environment Supplementary information is attached Russian: pdf + 500 copies English: pdf + 50 copies
Computer Exerciser For “telephone hot line” operators in case of incidents / accidents at NPPs • to improve communication skills • to refresh radiation risk basics
Computer exerciser: • 3 scenarios of radiation accidents at hypothetical NPP: • INES 0, INES 3, INES 4 • FAQs • journalists • members of the public • 34 audio dialogues • 47 self-checking tasks • 13 tasks to test communication skills
Lecture course • Crisis and Emergency Risk Communication • Target audience: stuff of the public information centers at NPPs • Changing approach • from “making of them mini-experts” to “prepare them for team working with technical experts” • from “academic style lectures” to “module education” • Draft version under discussion.
