Second Open Consultation on the GRACIOUS Framework

Written By Guest User

The EU Horizon 2020 project GRACIOUS is developing a science-based Framework, which aims to support practical application of grouping of nanomaterials and nanoforms for risk assessment and decision making. The deadline for providing feedback on the Framework is 31 July 2020.

GRACIOUS launches its stakeholder engagement platform and starts an open consultation on the GRACIOUS Framework

Stakeholders from industry, regulators, policy makers, consultants, non-governmental organisations and academia are invited to use the platform to provide their opinions on the progress within the Project.

The goal of the consultation is to find out if the structure of the GRACIOUS Framework is clear and appropriate for all target audiences. The engagement platform is built to collect information about how stakeholders would like the outputs of the grouping and read-across decisions to be presented. The GRACIOUS working group will then use the feedback to further refine the GRACIOUS Framework for its official launch in 2021. The deadline for providing feedback is 31 July 2020.

You can help us build a Framework that meets your needs at https://stakeholderengagement.h2020gracious.eu/
