How can we help?
How can we help? It was this one sentence—or rather question—addressed to ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ Director-General Osamu Motojima after his welcome address that explained why communication officers from the seven ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ Domestic Agencies, the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory, and from 25 European fusion associations had made their way from the different ends of the world to the ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ Headquarters last week.
The dissemination of information about the latest developments in the field of fusion research and of course the progress of the ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ project are the daily job of the communication officers working in the ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ Domestic Agencies in Oak Ridge, Hefei, Seoul, Barcelona, Moscow, Tokyo or Gandhinagar, or in one of the many fusion research facilities joined under the roof of the European Fusion Development Agreement (EFDA). For the first time since the start of the ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ, the EFDA Public Information Network met on the ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ premises in southern France to exchange ideas and opinions and to discuss appropriate communication tools.
