The International Nuclear Security Education Network (INSEN) is a collaboration among universities, research institutes, and other stakeholders under the auspices of the IAEA.
INSEN was established by the IAEA in 2010 with the aim to support, sustain and promote nuclear security education.
INSEN members collaborate in the following areas:
- Development of peer-reviewed textbooks, instructional material, computer-based teaching tools, and exercises and materials for laboratory work;
- Faculty development in the different areas of nuclear security through faculty development courses, faculty exchanges and joint development and implementation of nuclear security education programmes or courses;
- Joint research and development activities to share scientific knowledge and infrastructure;
- Student exchange programmes to foster international cooperation and exchange of information;
- Implementation of degree programmes and courses in nuclear security education;
- Quality assurance: consistency with IAEA defined terminology set out in the IAEA Nuclear Security guidance documents;
- Academic theses supervision and evaluation;
- Performance of surveys on the effectiveness of nuclear security education among students and faculty.
INSEN’s three working groups focus on:
- Development and maintenance of educational materials, tools, and methodologies;
- Programme, curriculum, and faculty development;
- Knowledge management and promotion of nuclear security education and INSEN.
INSEN members meet annually to review the activities of the three working groups, discuss and identify issues to be addressed, and assign tasks to the working groups.
INSEN membership is open to educational and research institutions and national competent authorities that are involved, or planning to be involved, in nuclear security education. Relevant international organizations may request to participate in or support INSEN activities as observers.
