IAEA
The IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency), founded in 1957 represents the peaceful use of nuclear energy. Its headquarters is in Vienna; besides that there a number of regional offices. About 2,300 experts from over 100 countries work in the Agency. Its main areas of work are nuclear security, science, technology, security clauses and checks of nuclear facilities. The annual Nuclear Safety Review publishes the global state-of-art of all nuclear power stations that are operating, pausing, shut down, planned or being decommissioned and their current status. In addition, the IAEA makes available data bases on research reactors worldwide and an information system on nuclear power plants.
