Following the accident at Unit 4 of Chernobyl nuclear power plant, extensive activities have been conducted to mitigate radiological consequences, on the public, associated with radioactive materials released during the accident. Among numerous decisions on protective measures, the decisions on long-term protective measures, in particular relocation, have been subjected to concerns and anxieties of the public, leading to social and political arguments in the three republics which were, are and will continuously be affected by the accident. Corresponding to this difficulty, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics requested the International Atomic Energy Agency to perform an international assessment of criteria established by the USSR authorities and an evaluation of protective measures on the public. This paper summarises the results of international assessment undertaken by the International Chernobyl Project under the direction of the International Advisory Committee, and includes such items as environmental contamination, exposure to the public, health effect and protective measures.
