is support, development and increase of efficiency of the international scientific-technical activity in the field of nuclear and radiation safety and radio-ecology. Main directions of scientific-technical and engineering activity, which are being developed on the basis of ICC, are: • nuclear and radiation safety • physical protection • decommissioning of nuclear facilities • training in case of emergency response • radio-ecology researches. The structure of Chernobyl centre includes Laboratory of Engineering Developments and Technologies (LEDT), International Radio-Ecological Laboratory (IRL), Kyiv department/ Laboratory of Safety Analysis and Centre of Projects Monitoring (Kyiv). More than 100 people work for Chernobyl centre at the moment, 71% of whom have high education, 10% have scientific degree, 30% is youth of the age under 30. Main projects, which realized by ICC in Slavutych, are the following: • Creation of integrated database of the "Shelter" Object • Modernization of safety system of oncology clinics in Ukraine • Development of radiation protection programme on the stage of final closure of ChNPP • Development of database on radioactive waste at Chernobyl NPP • Project of in-depth analysis of safety of power-generating unit ¹1 of Rovno NPP and of power-generating unit ¹1 of Khmelnitskiy NPP • Creation of database about consequences of Chernobyl accident • Radio-ecologic researches in contaminated zone • State evaluation of the threat of nuclear facilities, nuclear materials, radioactive waste and other sources of ionising radiation • Work in the framework of Kioto protocol of UNO Convention on changing of the climate • International forums Every year scientific-practical conference "International Cooperation to Chernobyl" and International scientific seminar "Radio-ecology of Chernobyl Zone" are conducted in Slavutych. International radioecology laboratory (IRL) was established on 22 July, 1998 and its activities include: • Research of the influence of radioactive contamination of Chernobyl zone on biologic objects and ecologic systems. • Ecological examination of the projects, technologies of production and products, ecological audit. • Development of the new technologies of effective overcoming of nuclear and radiation accident consequences and ecological rehabilitation of the environment. • Development of the reports on ecological safety analysis of the enterprises, productions and technological facilities. • Organisation and conducting of training courses and seminars on radioecology.
