Workshop: Nuclear Futures for a Better Tomorrow

We invite you to join us for an innovative, cross-disciplinary workshop on Nuclear Futures, where we will explore four distinct scenarios of how nuclear technologies, policies, and perceptions might evolve in the years ahead.

This is not your typical expert roundtable. We aim to break down silos and bring together people from diverse fields — including scientists, policymakers, creatives, industry leaders, civil society, activists, students, and more — to collaborate on thinking about what’s next for nuclear futures.

What to expect in the workshop

  • Work in an interactive format with people from diverse backgrounds
  • Explore four scenarios of possible nuclear futures
  • Identify risks and opportunities in each scenario
  • Help shape policy recommendations that can support decision-makers in addressing nuclear challenges

Who can apply?

This workshop is for young visionaries eager to explore and shape nuclear futures. We bring together a diverse group of participants to generate fresh ideas, unexpected connections, and balanced perspectives. Places are limited, and selection ensures a rich mix of voices and experiences.

We especially encourage applications from individuals who are often underrepresented in nuclear policy debates.

Once accepted, participation is considered binding, as groups are composed based on profiles. If something unavoidable comes up, please notify us at least 48 hours in advance so your spot can be offered to someone on the waiting list.

Who are we?

We are part of foraus – Swiss Forum on Foreign Policy, a platform enabling young people to actively engage in foreign policy debates and develop political ideas. Through our Nuclear Futures project, we are part of Next Generation Foresight Practitioners (NGFP), an initiative of the School of International Futures (SOIF). SOIF is an international school for futures studies, empowering individuals and organizations to think strategically about the future and make forward-looking decisions. With this project, we aim to empower young people to participate actively in tomorrow’s discussions, contribute their perspectives, and collaboratively develop innovative ideas for the future of nuclear technologies and policies.

✨ Sign up now and help shape nuclear futures with us!

Nuclear Institute – We need to Talk – Better – About Nuclear

An expert review of communication and stakeholder engagement from the Nuclear Industry to the public and other interested parties. This will include historical perspective, current trends and future improvements.

The British public has had a turbulent relationship with the idea of getting energy from splitting atoms. Variously, the nuclear world has been seen as peacemaker, polluter, pioneer and power source. The image of nuclear (in the form of power generator, waste generator or deterrent) is inextricably linked to the worlds of geopolitics, media, environmental issues, public health, risk perception and more.

This talk will summarise how public attitudes to nuclear have changed from the start of the industry in the 1950s to the present day – and the external drivers which have shaped those views. It will also examine how the way the industry communicates (or doesn’t!) can be critical to its future and offer some principles for future good practice.

This is a collaborative event with the Association for Project Management, open to NI members and non-members.
