its radioactive waste storage facilities.
Presentations from the
Pime Award Candidates:
COVRA
The main objective
of COVRA’s campaign was to use art as
a vehicle for articulating to the local community
the key message that COVRA provides a safe
and viable long-term solution for the storage
of nuclear waste. The SAFE = BEAUTIFUL concept
seeks to inform and reassure local stakeholders
that storing radioactive waste is “something
normal, something that we have done for a long
time.”

Young Generation
The Dutch YGN campaign,
which was linked to the 2nd European Young
Generation Forum (in Amsterdam, June 2007),
sought to encourage YG networks across Europe
to learn about new skills and tools for communicating
- via the press and TV - about nuclear energy’s
contribution to a general public whose perceptions
of nuclear are often coloured by ignorance
of the facts and common misconceptions.

EDF
EDF’s Craft Academy
campaign aimed to use a variety of employee
communications practices to help integrate
existing and newly-recruited EDF employees
within a common reinforced corporate culture.
By combining internal activities with activities
aimed at the press, it seeks to create among
employees a strong sense of corporate identity
and the desire to promote it externally.

Hungarian
Nuclear Society
The Hungarian Nuclear Society
used the European Heritage Days as a springboard
for a series of Open Day activities at its
plants and at the Hungarian Atomic Energy Authority.
By getting strong visibility with the Hungarian
press and TV, the Society helped reinforce
the good reputation of the nuclear industry
in Hungary and the view that the nuclear industry
is part of Hungary’s cultural and industrial
heritage.
