While WISE is often known as an anti-nuclear specialist, we have in fact been expanding our project portfolio to include alternatives and solutions, and work in partnership with other anti-nuclear grassroots as well as broad environmental organizations. We challenge the current energy system and promote solutions that will help to create a sustainable energy system without nuclear power. We integrate an anti-nuclear message into an approach to sustainable energy in order to ensure that accurate information about nuclear remains part of the narrative.
We are convinced that the energy revolution will only mature if we manage to build up enough pressure for a real change. We organize campaigns, projects and actions and supports others (groups and individuals) in their efforts to change the energy system and enable them to effectively oppose nuclear power. We also provide in depth knowledge on sustainable and nuclear energy, we lobby and give advice and develop tools, corresponding to current events and needs.
In our home country we provide knowledge and are involved in campaigns and actions. Internationally we focus primarily on our role as networker. Nevertheless, we also like to participate in campaigns and (direct) actions. We are fully aware of the fact that political and social changes only happen if enough pressure is being put on decision-makers. We get involved if we think the action being undertaken makes sense, and is most effective and appropriate to the situation.
In our home country we are involved in lobby work. On an international level we initiate or support letters and petitions. This includes work on transnational financial institutions, the EU and its institutions, the UN and its bodies, national governments, banks and business platforms.
We publish the Nuclear Monitor, a unique international newsletter serving the worldwide movement against nuclear power. Produced 15 times per year, it gives an anti-nuclear perspective on what is happening in the nuclear power industry and the resistance against it. The Nuclear Monitor concentrates on grassroots movements and media, featuring articles in which activists all over the world report on their local campaigns.
