The International Union of Radioecologists (IUR) is a non-political and non-profit scientific organisation for professional radioecologists.
It aims first at being a forum of information exchange between the radioecologists. The environment, being a complex data urges at having also information exchanges with scientists, involved in environmental research and management of non-radioactive nature. The IUR seeks therefore to promote this information exchange. For this reason, it organises or co-organises Workshops, Conferences and other discussion fora.
IUR is organised through an international Membership, meeting once a year at the General Assembly. The General Assembly evaluates the works of a Board of Council, elected for four years. The Board of Council delegates parts of its responsibilities to an Executive Committee, responsible for the daily management of the Union.
Own IUR activities are organised through a number of Task Groups, that endeavours to discuss the most relevant actual problems in the field.
IUR publishes a four-monthly Newsletter, occasionally an electronic letter for quick information. The results of the Task Groups eventually lead to special IUR publications.
