GBA+ aspects of Impact Assessment requirements matter for nuclear projects, yet many practitioners are still navigating what “good” looks like in practice, and others are only beginning to understand what GBA+ is and why it matters.
The workshop will feature practical case studies, lessons learned, and hands-on application of GBA+, drawing on Calian’s expertise in policy and Impact Assessment. Participants will be in able to share experience and get insights from peers and experts.
Wild Matriarch will introduce Social OPEX™ (Social Operating Experience), a new concept that applies nuclear Operating Experience (OPEX) principles to externally focused activities that shape project reputation, risk, and social licence.
The workshop will also lay the groundwork for a future community of practice focused on sharing experience and strengthening trust and social performance across projects and organizations.
This workshop is hosted by Wild Matriarch and Calian Nuclear
