The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) reports to the United Nations Security Council. It promotes the peaceful uses of nuclear energy and seeks to limit the development of its military applications. The site explains the ongoing missions and programs in which the agency is participating. It reports on inspections performed in all countries, including countries where the agency is in a position to provide credible assurance regarding the absence of undeclared activities, and other countries, including Iran. In addition to the many activities of the IAEA, the site provides nuclear news from around the globe as well as scientific and technical publications.
