The CaLIBRAte project will establish a state-of-the-art Risk Governance framework to guide stakeholders from research, industry, insurance and regulation in selecting the right data and procedures for assessment and management of human and environmental risks of nanomaterials and nano-enabled products (e.g. for REACH and other regulatory frameworks).
The project will develop a web-based “system-of-systems” linking different models and methods for:
- Screening of apparent and perceived risks and trends in nanotechnology
- Control banding, qualitative and fully integrated predictive quantitative risk assessment operational at different information levels
- Safety-by-design and multi-criteria decision support methods
- Risk surveillance, -management and -guidance documents.
In the current phase, the project is testing and refining existing human and environmental risk models for nanomaterials, in order to validate and integrate them in the “system-of-systems”.
At the caLIBRAte stand during NanoInnovation 2017 delegates will have the opportunity to have a demonstration of most advanced models used by caLIBRAte, such as the SUNDs Decision Support Systems for sustainable nanotechnologies (http://sunds.dais.unive.it/).
Project funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Programme under Grant Agreement 686239
