Full-chain and Uncertainty approaches for assessing health risks in FUture eNvironmental scenarios

Objective

2-FUN aims to provide decision-makers with state of the art tools to analyse the current and future trends in environmental conditions and pressures that may lead to health problems. It will support the evaluation and ranking of management options through a range of functionalities able to generate outputs of high concern for health risk assessment: building of long-term environmental and socio-economic scenarios, exposure and effects assessment, provision of uncertainty margins, identification of sensitive pathways and risks.

Specific scientific actions will be set up to develop methodologies, databases, models, and software on the following topics:
- Building future realistic socio-economic, environmental and health scenarios,
- Integrated exposure and effect assessment of multi-stressors via multiple routes,
- Integration of children's issues in health risk assessments,
- Development of uncertainty models for improved health management,
- Demonstrations of a full-chain approach for health risk assessment.

2-FUN will engage in a structured dialogue with all interested parties (stakeholders' community, policy-makers and researchers) to monitor large environment- and health-focused scientific initiatives and to incorporate stakeholders' vision and needs regarding the development of tools for health risk assessment. The tools developed will be tested on three contrasted case studies covering a range of temporal, spatial, sectorial, environmental, and societal contexts requiring comprehensive health risk assessments. They will provide policy-makers with relevant and easy-to-use information.

Fields of science (EuroSciVoc)

CORDIS classifies projects with EuroSciVoc, a multilingual taxonomy of fields of science, through a semi-automatic process based on NLP techniques. See: https://op.europa.eu/en/web/eu-vocabularies/euroscivoc.
