CIL and the Energy Studies Institute (ESI) under NUS have secured a research grant from Singapore's National Research Foundation entitled 'Policy and Law for Nuclear Safety and Security’ as part of the Singapore Government's Nuclear Policy Research Programme (NPRP Award No. NRF2014NPR-NPRP001-005). With funding of over two million Singapore Dollars, the three-year Nuclear Governance Project, which began on 4 January 2016, is staffed by a multidisciplinary academic team carrying out research in the governance of nuclear safety, security and civil liability for nuclear damage. The project's objectives are centred around research, networking and capacity building. Associate Professor Robert Beckman, Head of Ocean Law and Policy at CIL, is the co-principal investigator for the project, and Dr Philip Andrews-Speed, Senior Principal Fellow at ESI, is the principal investigator.
