NKS Programme Area: | NKS-B | Research Area: | Emergency preparedness | Report Number: | NKS 1994-002 | Report Title: | The Nordic emergency preparedness programme 1990-93 | Activity Acronym: | BER | Authors: | Leif Blomqvist (edt.) | Abstract: | The five Nordic countries (Denmark, Iceland, Finland, Norway, and
Sweden) have a long tradition of cooperation, owing to their geographic
proximity and facilitated by similar economic, cultural and societal
structures. At Nordic meetings, participants can frequently use their
own language, or their personal version of an artificial »Scandinavian«
language, making communication easier and working patterns more efficient
than is usually the case at international meetings.
The BER programme area of the 1990-1993 Nordic programme on
Nuclear Safety Research (NKS) is an example of extensive Nordic cooperation
in a scientific and technical field. (BER is an abbreviation of
»Beredskap«, Scandinavian for emergency preparedness). Altogether
BER comprised six main research projects, covering a wide and varying
range of subjects. The projects have resulted in a number of up-to-date
reports and reference guide books, for use in the planning of countermeasures
in large-scale emergencies. The present document is a summary,
based on the findings of all the BER projects. The final reports
from the projects are issued in 1994. References are given in the Appendix,
and the reader is urged to consult these reports for details. | Publication date: | 01 Apr 1994 | Number of downloads: | 2380 | Download: | 145.pdf |
