Environmental Risk Assessment (ERA)

This page gives an overview of and links to developments relevant to environmental risk assessment in intergovernmental fora and other international initiatives.

Intergovernmental fora:

• Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety (CPB)
• OECD
• International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC)

Other international initiatives:

• The International Society for Biosafety Research, ISBR.

A small group of PRRI volunteers, supported by Dr. Hans Bergmans, retired scientist of the Dutch National Institute for Public Health and the Environment, is monitoring ERA related developments in international fora, to help update these webpages, and to help prepare input for discussions in those fora. Drafts for input will be placed in the ERA-membership area.

PRRI members are invited to join this group and can do so by sending an email to info @ prri.net. Please indicate any specific topic of interest.
