Short summary

In this contribution, we offer a comparison of the US and German public participation approaches to nuclear waste management and disposal. Our comparative analysis broadly can offer valuable policy-relevant insights in light of the differences between the two cases. Our goal is to encourage reflection and mutual learning for policy makers in the two nations. We believe that comparing these two cases can inform cases beyond just these two.
