Discovery of the world of radioactive waste
ONDRAF/NIRAS has had a travelling exhibition since 1996. The purpose of the exhibition is to provide as much information as possible about all aspects of radioactive waste. This exhibition is aimed at the general public and can be set up in public buildings. The facility exists in four languages (among others in English) and can be adapted to the available space.

Science within everyone's grasp
The travelling exhibition aims to answer the questions of people who are interested in radioactive waste management and want to see for themselves how this waste is managed in practice. The exhibition is also designed to dispel people's doubts about radioactivity.
It focuses on four themes:
the origin of radioactive waste in a socio-historical context
the phenomenon of radioactivity
the short and medium-term management of radioactive waste
the long-term management of radioactive waste (disposal)

A dialogue area
Visitors can explore the exhibition on their own or accompanied by a guide, who is well-trained in the subject matter. The many visual aids and other interactive media used ensure that everything is presented in a very concrete way.
