1 Outlook ProSafe with first Call of common projects Tom van Teunenbroek , Riga, LATVIA A joint seminar on nanosafety by SIINN, NANoREG, ProSafe

2 Content of the presentation Introduction to ProSafe main aims, expected outcome ProSafe - the first Call of common projects and its impact

3 Introduction to ProSafe Coordination and support action H2020 Start date: 1 February 2015 Duration: 2 years 11 Partners plus Strategic Policy Development Group Main aim: coordination and strengthening existing and new initiatives on the field of nanosafety in a regulatory context FP7 & H2020, OECD, ECHA, EU-US.

5 Relations ProSafe

6 Main aims of the ProSafe project White Paper: broadly accepted document; basis for regulator and industry to cover EHS aspects of NMs including SbD Evaluation of the OECD WPMN sponsorship programme, NANoREG I and other projects. Acceptance of the NANoREG safe innovation and Safe-by- Design concept Long term research goals ( and ) inclusive funding arrangements for EU-US research collaboration

7 Other aims and activities Expanding NANoREG -> NANoREG+ Foresight study Standard approaches for data management Safe by Design o Networks with authorities, ngo s and industry aimed at exchange of knowledge on nanosafety research and the harmonization of Safe-by-Design approaches o defining and organizing a common project call together with national funding agencies, for further elaboration of the NANoREG safe innovation and Safe-by-Design concept

8 White Paper - objectives Present the need and possibility to regulate nanomaterials in such a way that the innovation potential of nanotechnology can be fully exploited while at the same time unacceptable risks for human health and the environment can be avoided Present a feasible philosophy and accompanying set of instruments to measure and assess the effects of Nanomaterials and their applications Present a way forward to integrate the safety aspects of nanomaterials in the innovation process. Broad platform of support is essential for impact of White Paper

9 ProSafe brings together NANoREG results: - Regulatory framework - Toolbox Safe by Design (NANoREG and NANoREG II) Results evaluation OECD data Results other projects

10 White Paper - content 1. Introduction 2. Context (general): 3. Actual situation: What is known and what is unknown 4. The big issues: What needs to be solved and decided 5. Solutions for the short and middle term 6. Solutions for the long term (among others: SbD)
