May 17-19, 2009

The 2009 North American Young Generation in Nuclear (NA-YGN) Annual Workshop will be held May 17-19, just prior to the Nuclear Energy Assembly in Washington, D.C. The theme for this year’s workshop is “Investing in Our Future With Nuclear”. The preliminary agenda includes sessions on public advocacy, financing energy, communications, global finance and more.

Additionally, on May 19, participants will be given a unique opportunity to participate in a “hill day”. NA-YGN members will be prepped on nuclear– related public policy issues and then meet with key decision–makers such as members of Congress, hill staff and government agency leaders to voice support for nuclear energy. In 2006, NA-YGN hosted a “hill day” initiative, and the event benefited everyone involved. In 2009, this event is even more important. NA-YGN will continue to build on previous successes and help inform and educate a new generation of Washington D.C. stakeholders on the benefits of nuclear science and technology.

Young professionals and students in all areas of nuclear science and technology are encouraged to attend the workshop.
