Abstract (English):
The current paper is devoted to the key outcomes of the 68-th Session of the United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation (UNSCEAR) which took place on-line in the form of videoconferences during 21-25 June 2021. 220 experts from 27 UNSCEAR Member-states, 4 experts from observer-states as well as the representatives of 12 international organizations participated in the work of the Session. Within the framework of the meetings of the Working group and subgroups the documents on the following projects were discussed: – R.748 Evaluation of occupational exposure to ionizing radiation. – R.749 Second primary cancer after radiotherapy. – R.750 Epidemiological studies of radiation and cancer. – R.751 Evaluation of public exposures to ionizing radiation from natural and other sources. – 68/7 Implementation of the Committee's strategy to improve collection, analysis and dissemination of data on radiation exposure. The Committee also discussed the future research program (2020-2024), UNSCEAR public outreach activities and Report to the UN General Assembly
