[ RadSafe ] Radiological Emergency Planning: Terrorism, Security, and Communication

[Jose Julio Rozental]

The note has mentioned  "This years offering of Radiological Emergency
Planning (formerly Nuclear Emergency Planning)"

The Radiological Accident in Goiania was the worst radiological Accident in
the world and the most important Laboratory to compare, (until now) with a
RDD.  All the recent International Congress on Security mention always
Goiania, when referring to the country's necessity to be prepared to
situations of city contamination and large group of public involvement. And
this include, not only communicating with the media and public, including
the many aspects of crisis communications, but also other's concerns and
conflicts, political, social, economic, medical and psychological. The
Goiania Accident, even after 20 years, present many lessons that were not
yet learned. For this reason I think Goiania, not just a mention, also must
be part of a course like  your intention. I am working in the following
paper: Radiological Accident in Goiania X RDD, Similarities and Differences
