Webinar About Ireland's Experience With Radon Risk Communication

There will be a webinar about Ireland's experience with radon risk communication on Monday 22 October.  Ireland’s Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) began communicating about radon risk in the early 1990s. In 2010, the agency launched a series of focused risk communication campaigns in high radon areas to raise awareness and encourage homeowners to test and reduce radon in their homes as necessary.  

Leading the webinar will be Stephanie Long has worked as a senior scientist in Ireland's EPA Radon Programme for 10 years. She is the Project Manager for Ireland’s National Radon Control Strategy and her work on radon has focused on raising public awareness, research into the behaviour of radon, and policy development.
