Countries can overcome these challenges by collaborating on the development of international standards and regulations for nanomaterials. This can be facilitated by organizations such as the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). Additionally, investing in research and development to better understand the environmental and health impacts of nanomaterials can help mitigate risks. Strengthening international intellectual property agreements and enforcement mechanisms can also protect innovations in nanotechnology.
