This review provides a concise overview of knowledge and experience gained from the activities for environmental remediation after the Fukushima Dai-ichi accident as input for developing a technical knowledge base including remediation technologies which is translated into actions that enable the rapid return of evacuees. It is reflecting JAEA's key role in the research associated with both remediation of contaminated areas and the natural processes influencing contamination migration in non-remediated areas, working together with a number of Japanese and international organisations and research institutes. This review also provides a perspective on the future actions required to remediate areas outside the Fukushima Dai-ichi site.
