2011: A quarter of a century has passed since the Chernobyl nuclear power station disaster.
Its consequences have been dismissed, hushed up, belittled and ignored. The
nuclear lobby and politicians make light of the dangers of low dose radiation
by purposeful propaganda and persistent concealment. Operation times for
nuclear power stations in Germany
were prolonged against the manifest will of the people.
The German
Society for Radiation Protection (GSS), supported by and in cooperation with the
Ukrainian Association “Physicians of Chernobyl”, the German Section of IPPNW
and the European Committee on Radiation Risk (ECRR) organized an
international scientific conference on April 6-8, 2011 at the Charité University Hospital,
Campus of Virchow Clinical Center,
in Berlin
“The Chernobyl
Catastrophe:
Taking Stock of 25 Years of
Ecological and Health Damages”
