Project objectives and goals


The overall objective of RRADEW (“Resilience to RADiological Events in Wartime”) is to enhance nuclear emergency preparedness, response, and recovery (EPR&R) systems by developing methodological and technological approaches to strengthen resilience in the context of war or armed conflict disasters.

RRADEW will assess and prioritize plausible scenarios for the deployment of hostilities at nuclear facilities and consider their possible radiological consequences. The resilience of the emergency management system will be analysed through case studies, the development and application of a resilience analysis platform, and assessment of legal, ethical, and social issues. The final output of the project will be guidance and recommendations for improving radiological protection and strengthening resilience in situations of armed conflict, as well as education and training materials for better preparation of stakeholders.
