RadoNorm
Work Packages
To achieve our objectives, RadoNorm project is structured in eight work packages (WP) spanning 60 months and focused around all steps of the risk management cycle to improving radiation risk knowledge and management for radon and NORM.
Coordination, Management and Administration
BfS, Germany
This work package will ensure proper co-ordination across tasks and partners in order to achieve the overall project objectives within time, quality and budget constraints and EC’s requirements.
Exposure
New scientific knowledge, methods and protocols to better characterize the exposure of human (public and workers) and non-human biota to radon and NORM.
Dosimetry
EK, Hungary
Doses and dose distributions for epidemiological and experimental studies, and for specific subgroups, and their uncertainties upon exposure to radon and NORM
Effects and Risks
New knowledge on biological effects and responses after exposure to radon and NORM: implications for risk assessment and radiation protection of humans and the environment.
Mitigation
SURO, Czech Republic
New mitigation strategies and optimization of existing systems utilizing innovative mitigation methods and techniques applied in radiation protection of the general public, workers and the environment against exposure to radon in dwellings and workplaces, and exposures in specific NORM involving industries and legacy sites.
Societal aspects
SCK-CEN, Belgium
WP6 will develop strategic, innovative, theory- and evidence-based radon and NORM risk communication, as well as contribute to an improved governance of radon and NORM risks in a society.
Education and Training
SU, Sweden
The aim of WP7 is to educate a team of innovative, critical and enthusiastic young experts in radiation protection research with special focus on radon and NORM.
Communication, dissemination and exploitation of results
Communication, dissemination activities and exploitation of results to ensure real intake of project results for the wide variety of stakeholders in two-way exchange.
WP9 Ethics Requirements
This work package sets out the ‘ethics requirements’ related to studies with animal and human that the project must comply with.
Objective of WP9
The objective is to ensure compliance with the ‘ethics requirements’ set out in this work package. RadoNorm can count on the advices of the RadoNorm Ethics Committee
