The Joint Project is a international group of NGOs and research institutions which work together on anti-nuclear issues. The main topic changes every year.

On the 26th and 27th November 2009 the Joint Project Strategic Workshop took place at the Austrian Institute of Ecology, Vienna.
The workshop had a strong focus on what rights NGOs get by the Aarhus Convention and how to use these rights on everyday's NGO work.

Belene is the construction site of Bulgaria's second NPP. Construction was stopped in 1990 over protest from environmentalists and lack of funds. The construction works were resumed later on: But instead of 4 billion euro, which was the official prize tag announced by the former government, the new energy minister talks about costs amounting to reach 10 billion euro.
Environmentalists from all over Europe gathered at the antinuclear summit in Belene to point out the problems of the Belene project, develop strategies and show the existing protest against the project. Press conferences, happenings and expert discussions about nuclear risk and the economic consequences of Belene were on the programme.
