Nuclear Stories is a growing trans-media universe featuring stories from nuclear-themed events throughout history.
From the exploitative uranium mining in Niger, the Chernobyl nuclear power plant meltdown in Ukraine, and the nuclear testing on the Bikini Atoll, to the Cuban Missile Crisis and the North Korea case, Nuclear Stories spans across the globe with true stories that have been researched and adapted from the nuclear age in a variety of formats.
Alongside an internationally awarded web story, Nuclear Stories also features a documentary and a story platform. Nuclear Stories goes beyond its creation. And at its core is the live debates and events that will keep the platform alive and growing, hearing Nuclear Stories from around the globe. Our aim is to learn from the past and create a better, safer future. Join us on this very spacial day, in remembrance of the Chernobyl disaster, and find out how you can be part of this ever growing platform.
Let’s start a chain reaction through stories!
