Press release: establishment of the ERDO Association announced

A press release has been issued announcing the establishment of the ERDO Association.

ERDO, which stands for European Repository Development Organization, is a multinational association through which organisations from different European countries are joining forces, and has been founded after more than 10 years of preparation. Before its establishment, the organisations worked together in the ERDO Working Group, which involved co-operation between eight countries with smaller amounts of radioactive waste. The aim of the ERDO Association is to work together to address the common challenges of safely managing the long-lived radioactive wastes in these countries and to carry out the necessary groundwork to enable the establishment of one or more operational, shared multinational waste management solutions. That goal is a step closer with the new Association.
