The conference is co-organised with the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy of Korea, with the participation of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and the European Commission (EC). KORAD (Korea Radioactive Waste Agency) is the local host of ICGR-7.

There is consensus within the international scientific community that geological repositories can provide the necessary long-term safety and security to isolate long-lived waste from the human environment over extended timescales. Whilst it is feasible to construct these repositories using current technologies, challenges remain in many countries to the development of geological repositories, including building and maintaining public confidence, the availability of skilled staff, and the transfer of information and expertise. The Seventh International Conference on Geological Repositories (ICGR-7) will take place on 27-31 May 2024 in Busan, Korea. The event will bring together high-level decision-makers from regulatory and local government bodies, waste management organisations and public stakeholder communities to review current perspectives of geological repository development.
