Recognising how fundamental the ‘social licence to operate’ is to any uranium mining project, in 2012 the IAEA initiated a series of training courses and workshops on stakeholder engagement and social licensing issues. While the social licence has different features in each country, and is negotiated in different ways, without one, a project’s chances of success are significantly compromised. This paper summarises the findings from a workshop held in Istanbul, Turkey, in February 2014, and offers some perspectives on likely future developments.
