GIF carries out its mission through its Generation IV technology specific System Steering Committees and works on cross cutting and methodological matters through its Working Groups and Task Forces.
Get an overview of how Gen IV Nuclear Energy Systems are defined, what are the Generation IV criteria, which Nuclear Reactors Technologies were selected as capable of meeting those criteria and how this relates to the GIF Technology Roadmap (and its revisions).
Generation IV International Forum (GIF) was created as a co-operative international endeavour seeking to develop the research necessary to test the feasibility and performance of fourth generation nuclear systems, and to make them available for industrial deployment by 2030.

The GIF is a global cooperative framework focused on providing a platform that offers support and advantages to its members in the development of Generation IV systems. A key aspect of its strategy includes collaborating, engaging, and identifying synergies with other international entities to enhance its influence and prevent duplication of work.
The 2025 GIF Framework Agreement (FA) is the international treaty that established the GIF under its current form and that dictates its main principles of governance and goals. Each signatory of the this agreement, or FA Party, can designate one or several Implementing Agents. Those are organisations mandated by the FA Party to ensure the fulfilment of its obligations under the GIF FA and the success of the international R&D cooperation on Gen-IV Nuclear Energy Systems that is the raison d'être of the Generation IV International Forum.
The Sodium Fast Reactor System Steering Committee (SFR SSC) was initially formed following the signing of the SFR System Arrangement in 2006 under the now expired 2005 GIF Framerwork Agreement. A new SFR SA has been opened for signatures under the new 2025 GIF FA and became effective in March 2025. This committee supervises five projects encompassing a wide array of subjects pertaining to Sodium Fast Reactors. Until recently, the SFR System was the sole system with commercially operating reactors globally.
