New global initiative launched for peaceful use of nuclear technology

A global initiative to promote cooperation in the nuclear technology industry was launched at the ongoing third International Nuclear Technology Application Conference in Beijing.

The new initiative, called the "Initiative to Jointly Build an Open, Inclusive, Universally Beneficial and Win-Win International Industrial Ecosystem for Nuclear Technology Applications," was introduced by the China Isotope and Radiation Association.

It calls on international organizations, industry groups, researchers and companies to work together for the peaceful and inclusive use of nuclear technology, and seeks to foster a new type of international cooperation based on mutual respect, fairness, justice and shared development.

The initiative also aims to explore new paths for global collaboration, maintain a stable, open and safe industrial ecosystem, exchange development experiences, address common challenges and provide innovative solutions for sustainable development and economic recovery.

More than 400 representatives from over 20 countries attended the conference, including China, Russia, Britain, France, the United States, Canada and Australia.

The three-day event, which began on Tuesday, features multiple sessions on topics such as radiation processing, isotope production and nuclear safety. During the conference, China also shared its national policies on nuclear technology, highlighted several industrial achievements and launched a smart nuclear medicine solution.

The event serves as a major international platform for exchange and cooperation in the peaceful use of nuclear technology.
