Formulation of Japanese Consensus-building Model for HLW Geological Disposal Site Determination - 1. Introduction -

Naotaka OKI (Shizuoka University)

Abstract
To establish the sustainable community in Japan, formation of Japanese consensus-building model for HLW geological disposal site determination is one of key issues. In our project, we have reviewed the past history for HLW geological disposal site determination and propose next-generation Japanese consensus-building model which is based on the discussion not only with government and specialists but also with citizens.

Keywords
HLW, Japanese consensus-building model

Formulation of Japanese Consensus-building Model for HLW Geological Disposal Site Determination - 2. Development of game for enhancement of social acceptance -

Kenji OKUNO and Yasuhisa OYA (Shizuoka University)

Abstract
Present project consists of two parts, model for institution design and education program. For the education program for public citizen, we have developed a game running on iPod touch based on Erehwon repository project proposed by Swiss ITC under OBRA project.

Formulation of Japanese Consensus-building Model for HLW Geological Disposal Site Determination - 3. Development of Digital Contents on Social Consensus-building at Educational Institution –

Yoshisuke KUMANO, Tetsuro TANZAWA, Shingo UCHINOKURA, Takahiro KAYANO, Mayuko IGASHIRA and Bambang PURWANTO (Shizuoka University)

Abstract
To establish the sustainable community in Japan, formation of Japanese social consensus-building model for HLW geological disposal site determination is one of key issues. In our project team of faculty of education, we found interesting middle school digital contents for HLW disposal site determination in London. We have been translating all of the digital contents for HLW disposal site determination into Japanese and we have been discussing on the model for next-generation Japanese consensus-building at middle school level.

B-4-4

Formulation of Japanese Consensus-building Model for HLW Geological Disposal Site Determination - 4. The Influence of the Accurate Information on the Decision making -

Shin SAIGUSA, Hidenori YONEHARA and Kazuo SAKAI (National Institute of Radiological Sciences)

Abstract
Investigation has been made to discusss how the accurate scientific information affects the perception of risk. To verify this investigation, dialogue seminars have been held. Based upon the outcomes of these investigations, the analysis of attribution was done to verify the factors affecting the risk perception and acceptance relevant to the concensus-building for HLW geological disposal site determination.

Keywords

Formulation of Japanese Consensus-building Model for HLW Geological Disposal Site Determination - 5. The whole design of Japanese consensus-building model -

Sadafumi NAKATAKE (Kagoshima University), Akihide KUGO (The Kansai Electric Power Co., INC.), Akemi ORI (Kanto Gakuin University), Toshio SUGIMAN Hiroshi SHIMODA (Kyoto University), Yoshihiko SHINODA (The Wakasawan Energy Research Center), Yoshimi KAWAMOTO (University of Fukui), Kenichi MATSUMURA (Mukogawa Women's University), Asami ORITA (OSAKA UNIVERSITY) and Michiko OISHI (Kagoshima University)

Abstract
In this article, we have examined the background of HLW issue itself, local society and political system after discussing with various researchers who had each specialism, and we found a new concept included “communication design” and “infulencer”. Utilizing this concept, we propose the whole design of next-generation Japanese consensus-building model.
