All about ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ and fusion
Beginning this autumn, the ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ will be launching a new video series to inform, inspire and educate. The first video—introducing the series and offering a general overview of the ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ project—is available now.
In September 2021, the ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ will be launching a series of videotaped talks on the science and technology of ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ. Filmed in the ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ studio with experts in every domain, ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ Talks aims to inform and educate viewers about the specificities of ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ, fusion science, and fusion engineering, and address some of the project management challenges of such a complex, world-spanning endeavour. Approximately 30 videos are planned, for release at regular intervals.
Based on an in-house series of lectures that ran in 2018, ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ Talks is part of a broader knowledge management program at the ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ. The program aims to identify and preserve the knowledge and expertise that exists within the project, and to share and disseminate this knowledge both within the organization and globally, as a way to promote fusion. The series is fully supported by the International Atomic Energy Agency, which considers this initiative as a stepping-stone for other educational initiatives in the future.
The first video—"Introduction to ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ"—was recorded by ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ Head of Communication, Laban Coblentz. Why have 35 nations agreed to collaborate for four decades to realize the ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ program? What are the advantages of fusion and how can it contribute to the world's energy dilemma? How does a tokamak work? What is unique about ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ? What is the status of the project today?
