Background |
|
Background: The radioactive fallout from the Chernobyl nuclear disaster has affected human security in three key ways. Firstly, it has created significantly destabilized income security by disrupting agricultural production. Secondly, it has created health risks – mostly relating to the consumption of radioactively contaminated foods. Thirdly, many people still lack the necessary knowledge, skills and attitude to live safely in conditions of low-dose radiation exposure. The project covers five administrative districts of twenty one affected by radioactive contamination: Slavgorod, Chechersk, Bragin, Stolin and Luninets. These target districts are broadly representative of the Chernobyl-affected areas of Belarus. They have a total population of over 220,000 - mostly rural and relying on agricultural employment and smallholdings for their livelihood. Objectives: The overall goal of the project is to enhance human security in the Chernobyl affected communities of the Slavgorod, Chechersk, Bragin, Stolin and Luninets Districts. Residents will be given the means to improve income security, minimize radiation exposure and practice healthy lifestyles. The project focuses on specific communities to develop and test new approaches; these can later be extended to cover other Chernobyl-affected areas in Belarus.
