An IAEA Safeguards Approach is a set of safeguards measures chosen for the implementation of safeguards in a given situation in order to meet the applicable safeguards objectives. The safeguards approach takes into account the specific features of the safeguards agreement (or agreements) and, where applicable, whether the IAEA has drawn a conclusion of the absence of undeclared nuclear material and activities in the State. Safeguards approaches are developed for each facility under safeguards. In addition, safeguards approaches may be developed for generic facility types and for the State as a whole.
