摘要

The paper describes the IAEA programmes and capabilities contributing to the peaceful uses of nuclear technology on a global scale. The IAEA has developed and continues to support a global nuclear safety regime that is comprised of several facets. The prinicipal elements are binding and non-binding international legal instruments such as the various conventions and codes of conduct; a comprehensive suite of nuclear safety standards; a suite of international safety reviews and services, based on the safety standards; and the need to ensure strong national infrastructures and a global community of experts. These elements are described in some detail and the future challenges are outlined.
