consists of 26 organisations from 10 countries and the EC Joint Research Centre. The participating organisations represent all major radioactive waste producing countries within the European Union as shown in the map below. The consortium includes national waste management organisations, a regulator, several technical safety organisations (TSO) that closely support the regulator, universities and research organisations and two SMEs. From their different roles within their national radioactive waste programme, the participants bring in complementary viewpoints and experiences into the project which allows exploitation of the project results by both national waste management organisations and regulators alike.


The project partners, their relevant competences and their contributions to the project are sketched in the Table below.
