How can we ensure that the nuclear workforce is open, approachable, and representative of the communities it serves—offering appropriate connections and resources to promote a sustainable and healthy industry? This panel session will explore student perspectives on IDEA (Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, Accessibility) in the nuclear field and its implications for the future workforce, particularly as it relates to pursuing nuclear education and outreach.
