Webinar on Nuclear Security Applications of Uncrewed Aerial Systems (UASs) for Radiation Detection and Surveillance

The growing sophistication, availability and adaptability of Uncrewed Aerial Systems (UASs) have made them an emerging capability both for nuclear safety and nuclear security applications, such as monitoring a radioactive contamination area and locating a radioactive source out of regulatory control. From military application to recreational use, modern UASs come in a wide range of sizes, shapes, cost, and capabilities. A greater understanding is needed regarding their use to support countries’ radiological and nuclear security programmes.

This webinar is part of a series of events that address the need for improved research, development, training, testing and guidance on UASs applications for nuclear security. Following a recent Technical Meeting on the Use of UAS for Radiation Detection and Surveillance, this event will address specific applications in greater detail.

Guest speakers will present four cases of UASs use: emergency response, environmental survey and monitoring, radioactive source search, and a special maritime application. The cases in which this technology is used will provide a context for determining when UAS technology is applicable for a specific activity and identify potential UASs requirements. Each use case presentation will discuss key mission requirements, why a UAS was used, environmental constraints, salient UASs capabilities, lessons learned, and conclude with considerations for other similar cases.

Webinar Series: Education as a Key to Addressing The Gender Equality Gap in Nuclear Security Globally

The IAEA Division of Nuclear Security launched the Women in Nuclear Security Initiative (WINSI) in March 2021 with the mission to establish the IAEA as a leading global voice for gender equality in the nuclear field, in contribution to the IAEA’s Director General vision. WINSI aims to promote and strengthen the involvement of women in nuclear security and related fields worldwide as well as to enhance the attractiveness of nuclear security jobs and careers to women, especially for the next generation.

To support this initiative, WINSI has organized and hosted in 2021-2022 the following webinars:

In the beginning of 2022, WINSI, in partnership with four renowned international universities, announced four webinars with the aim to establish an international forum where knowledge on existing programmes and opportunities in nuclear security education will be shared. This series of webinars aims to also connect students (women and men) with their peers and experts worldwide. The quarterly webinars will focus on the role of education as a key to developing and promoting more young women in the field of nuclear security. Each webinar will provide the opportunity to learn about existing nuclear security education programmes in a specific region of the world.

Starting from the Asia and the Pacific region, Amity University in India co-hosted the first webinar on 7 March 2022 by inviting experts and students from the region to share their experiences and discuss how the regional nuclear security educational programmes contribute to the increase of women representation in this field. The second webinar, co-hosted by Purdue University in the USA on 8 July 2022, focused on nuclear security programmes and initiatives in North and South America. The third webinar was co-hosted by Mansoura University in Egypt on 20 September 2022 and shared programmes and initiatives in Africa and the Middle East.
