The safe disposal of radioactive waste is a scientifically demanding task, but at the same time it is characterised by discourses and conflicts in society. Transdisciplinary research (often referred to as "citizen science") provides the link between science and society (for more information, click here).

TRANSENS aims to research transdisciplinarily into the management of highly radioactive waste: The interested public and other non-academic actors will be involved in research contexts in a well-planned manner.
