  Session 1
Session 1 will briefly describe the peaceful use of nuclear technologies, the radioactive waste that is generated and the organization of such wastes according to different classes. It will emphasize that managing such waste requires an integrated approach from generation to disposal, as well as appropriate funding. Safety, security and safeguards aspects must be considered during this journey.
