2019 Nuclear Law Institute

The ninth session of the Nuclear Law Institute (NLI) will be held from 30 September to 11 October 2019 in Vienna, Austria.

As in previous years, the 2019 NLI will offer two weeks of intensive training for up to sixty lawyers from Member States in all areas of nuclear law and in the drafting of corresponding national legislation. Drawing on modern teaching methods based on interaction and practice, the NLI will provide a combination of 'impulse' lectures covering the fundamentals of nuclear law; facilitated small-group (so-called 'TOP') sessions focusing on the implementation of information from the lectures; and a number of legislative drafting exercises.

Applications for the NLI should be submitted through the official channels (i.e. the National Liaison Officer) using the InTouch+ system. The application procedure is described here (with link to attached document). Applications should be linked to technical cooperation project INT0096 – Establishing and Enhancing National Legal Frameworks for the Safe, Secure and Peaceful Use of Nuclear Energy and Ionizing Radiation, EVT1901547. The deadline for submitting applications is 10 May 2019. Please be advised that applications received after this date or which have not been routed through the established official channels cannot be considered.
