Adaptive regulation involves several key components:
Continuous Monitoring: Regulatory bodies must continuously monitor scientific developments and technological innovations in nanotechnology. Stakeholder Engagement: Engaging with a broad range of stakeholders, including scientists, industry representatives, and the public, to gather diverse perspectives and insights. Iterative Policy Development: Policies are developed and refined iteratively, incorporating feedback and new information. Risk-Based Approach: Emphasis on assessing and managing risks based on the latest scientific evidence. Flexibility: Regulations must be flexible to accommodate new discoveries and unexpected challenges.
