What are the health impacts of radon in the indoor air of residential buildings in Europe?
 
===Boundaries===
 
    * Boundaries define which parts of the reality are taken into the assessment and which are excluded within
      spatial, temporal and other dimensions.
 
===Scenarios===
 
    * Scenarios define particular conditions that are of interest irrespective whether they describe
      reality or not (e.g. what-if scenarios).
 
===Intended users===
 
    * Intended users are those for whom the assessment is made.


===Participants===
===Boundaries etc===


    * Participants are those who may participate in the making of the assessment.
'''Boundaries, scenarios, intended users, and participants''' are the same as in the [[Mega case study]].
      The minimum group of people for a successful assessment is always described.
      If some groups must be excluded, this must be explicitly motivated.
