The making of ITER

18 Dec 2009 - Myriam Jacobs
Akko Maas, ITER Senior Officer for External Coordination, and Harry Tuinder, Legal Advisor to the ITER Director-General.

Take a bit from the United Nations, a speck from the European Space Agency (ESA), some inspiration from the European Commission and the JET Joint Undertaking, a couple of good ideas from CERN and the International Space Station (ISS)—shake, adapt, streamline and you'll have the tailor-made international organization you need to build a project such as ITER.

Harry Tuinder, the Legal Advisor to the ITER Director-General and Akko Maas, ITER Senior Officer for External Coordination, reflect on the making of the ITER Organization.
