Description

The Generation-IV International Forum (GIF) is a framework for international cooperative activities on research and development (R&D) of Generation-IV (Gen-IV) reactors, including fast reactors. This paper introduces its background, goals, activities, recent topics, such as formulation of draft safety design criteria (SDC) for the sodium cooled fast reactor (SFR) and the second GIF Symposium held in San Diego, the United States of America, in November 2012, as well as the future direction of GIF.
