3. divide the decision-making process into five phases; and
4. organise decision-making, public participation, knowledge and financing at each step. Do read the report for more specific recommendations and suggestions, in particular for the first two phases.

The advice was presented to the State Secretary on September 4th. We made four core recommendations:
1. lay down a participatory, step-by-step approach now;

Bloomsbury just published Dam Internationalism: Rethinking Power, Expertise and Technology in the Twentieth Century. The volume sheds new light on the globalization of technology and international power struggles in the twentieth century through the perspective dams.

Case studies cover India, China, North America, Spain, Latin America, Uzbekistan, Czechoslovakia, Ethiopia, Ghana, Mexico, and the role of international organization - all seen through an internationalism angle.

De overheid moet nog een serie beslissingen nemen voordat wij een plek hebben waar we ons radioactief afval duizenden jaren veilig kunnen bergen. Om tijdig de kennis daarvoor te hebben, moeten we eerst een stappenplan maken voor dat besluitvormingsproces. https://t.co/laO2ki6Etn

@llchristyll @ASAnews Would love to read that, wish I had seen it earlier!

@jacobboersema I am a fan of Jane Griffith's “Do Some Work for Me : Settler Colonialism, Professional Communication, and Representations of Indigenous Water.” Decolonization: Indigeneity, Education & Society 7, no. 1 (2018): 132–57. Matches well with the John Gast painting, too.

De Finnen zijn al een plek aan het inrichten waar ze hun radioactief afval definitief kunnen opbergen. Alle landen in Europa moeten zo’n locatie vinden voor bijvoorbeeld het afval uit hun kerncentrales. @RathenauNL zocht uit wat ze van elkaar kunnen leren. https://t.co/4p6RyJmybN

@ccmmody @ultra_beige Interesting. Usually Lilienthal's board member Arthur Morgan is more closely associated with the types of ideas of E. F. Schumacher. This is also raised in Thinking Small by @dimmerwahr
