Detailed Information/Report on Activities

This project initially investigates each case of public participation in nuclear power matters, with reference to each legal system in Japan, China, Korea and Taiwan, which have already possessed nuclear plants. Based on the findings above, this project aims to review legal systems on public participation around East Asia and to contribute to not only the development of energy policies and democracy there, but the international cooperation in the peaceful use of nuclear energy and the building of a transborder public participation framework.
