'Risk assessment projects' describe research and communication projects that deal with environmental health risks and risk assessments.
The European Union has funded a large number of research projects in this field in recent years. The final results of the EU Fifth Framework Programme of Research [FP5]-funded projects are available at [1] and [2].
An example of a project funded: EXPORED (Multi-organic Risk Assessment of Selected Endocrine Disrupters).
The EU has also funded a number of risk assessment projects in the Sixth Framework Programme of Research (FP6)[3]. Examples of projects include:
ATHON (Impact of non-dioxin-like PCBs on neurobehavioural, reproductive and developmental toxicity, and tumour promotion)[4]. SAFEFOODS (Promoting food safety through a new integrated risk analysis approach for foods). [5].
