I WORKSHOP ON NUCLEAR ENERGY, ENVIRONMENT AND
PUBLIC OPINION.
The I Workshop on Nuclear Energy, Environment and Public Opinion comprise three major sections:
National Seminar on Public Information and Nuclear Energy
Round table on Nuclear Energy, Environment and Public Opinion
Workshop on Nuclear Energy and Environment
National Seminar on Public Information and Nuclear Energy
The Seminar is arranged under the auspices of the International Atomic Energy Agency and the Center for Information
on Energy (CIEN, Havana, Cuba). The work of the Seminar has been arranged in a series of invited conferences on
Nuclear Energy, Environment, Radiation control and other related topics, focused on to the dissemination of information
on the matter between the main national press agencies representatives and journalists.
Lectures will be read in both Spanish and English, with translation services.
