PARC
The European Partnership for the Assessment of Risks from Chemicals (PARC)is seeking to develop next-generation chemical risk assessment, incorporating both human health and the environment in a "One Health“ approach. Bringing together nearly 200 scientific partners from 28 countries as well as EU agencies, PARC is coordinated by ANSES, the French Agency for Food, Environmental and Occupational Health & Safety, with funding on an equal basis from Horizon Europe, the 9th EU research and innovation framework programme, and the partnership's participants. Since Switzerland has third country status under Horizon Europe, the participation of Swiss partners is funded by the Federal Office of Public Health.
SCAHT contributes to Work Package 6 “Innovation in Regulatory Risk Assessment.” Specifically, Task 6.4 “Transposing Results to Regulatory Risk Assessment Methodologies” aims at developing and fostering the uptake of innovative, efficient and protective regulatory risk assessment and management approaches and methodologies.
