Background Information
Background and objectives of EAFORM
Safe, secure, and sustainable solutions to the management of spent nuclear fuels and radioactive wastes
are critical to the viability and continuing peaceful use of nuclear power and other advanced nuclear
applications. With no exception, current nuclear energy programs in the East Asian area are all faced withsuch challenges. Although each of these programs has developed its own technology base, implementation
strategy, and infrastructure, the urgent need for further technology enhancement on radioactive waste
management and implementation of radioactive waste disposal are becoming more essential to all. This isespecially true after the accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant. Enhancing international
collaboration will benefit participants through the sharing of knowledge and expertise, as well as otherintangible benefits such as public comprehension of safety issues and support for repository establishment.
Recognizing these facts, several East Asian research organizations agreed to hold the East Asia Forumon Radwaste Management (EAFORM) to enhance future cooperation. EAFORM is principally opened to all
research organizations and others related to radioactive waste management. The purpose of EAFORM is topromote information exchange, to share knowledge, and to encourage international collaboration in abilateral or multilateral mode.
Under this configuration, the EAFORM Management Committee was organized to develop activities
aimed at strengthening the above purpose. The 1 st EAFORM conference was held in Taiwan in 2006. The
6th EAFORM conference will be held in Osaka from November 27 to 29, 2017. Conference participants areencouraged to focus their submissions on the technical topics of this conference.
