The International Conference on Global Emergency Preparedness and Response, known as EPR, will look at the lessons learned from the Fukushima disaster in Japan in 2011.

More than 100,000 people were evacuated from the areas surrounding the nuclear facility there as a result of concerns over exposure to radioactive elements released from damaged reactors.
