ASEAN Nuclear Governance
Research in this area aims to answer the following questions: How is ASEAN cooperating in preparing for the possible future deployment of nuclear power in Southeast Asia? Who are the actors and how are they managing the common affairs related to the safe, secure and peaceful uses of civilian nuclear energy in anticipation of this possibility? What are the formal or informal arrangements under which these actors act, and to what extent are they based on international rules, standards and practices? What are the priorities and plans of these actors? In short, what is the state of nuclear governance within ASEAN?
Key outputs include:
- A comprehensive mapping of bodies and instruments relevant to nuclear governance within Southeast Asia (Latest publicly available version)
- A table of participation by the respective ASEAN Member States in key international nuclear safety, security and liability as well as environmental conventions (Latest publicly available version)
- A background report on the evolution and current state of ASEAN nuclear governance (forthcoming)
Updated versions of these outputs may be available on request.
