°ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ, from the inside out

As concrete and steel structures rise on site and major strides are being made in the fabrication of machine components, interest in the project is growing worldwide. °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ is tangible; it is happening for real. Visitors on site—13,000 last year alone—can bear witness to the progress that is made every day.   _Img1_But the pace of work on site and finite resources for on-site tours place a limit on the number of individuals °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ can receive. This is why—in addition to its weekly program of visits—the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ Communication team organizes targeted events such as Open Doors Days for members of the public and annual media events for journalists.   In the latest Media Days event on 10-11 October approximately 30 reporters/camera teams were on site for a full two-day program of events—complete site tour with access to every major building, interviews with the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ Director-General, and a slate of lectures on °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ's science, technology, international make-up, and status.   _Vo_446*640*250_VoX__Vx_All °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ Members were represented at this year's event. Teams came from Agence France Presse (AFP), Al Jazeera (see video), China News Service, Chosun Biz, Corriere della Sera, The Engineer, the Indo-Asian News Service, Nature, Nature Research, RAI News 24, Sky News and Xinhua News Agency to name but a few.   Stories have already been trickling through; please see the links below. The full list will be kept current on this page (scroll down to "In the Press").
