This working group has been translating into Japanese the publication "Practical Guidance for Engagement with the Public on Radiation and Risk" by IRPA in 2020. This publication was made with the theme of public understanding, which was one of key issues that the consultation by IRPA to its member societies identified as most necessary in the radiation protection system. The translated guidance is supposed to be distributed to radiation protection experts and relevant communities in Japan who may be interested in public understanding. The purpose of this symposium is to share the working progress and important points of the guidance.
