What are the Key Initiatives of the OECD in Nanotechnology?
Several key initiatives have been undertaken by the OECD to address the multifaceted aspects of nanotechnology:
OECD Safety of Manufactured Nanomaterials: This initiative focuses on the testing and assessment of nanomaterials to ensure their safety for human health and the environment. NanoReg Project: A project that aims to develop regulatory frameworks and guidelines for the safe use of nanomaterials. Sponsorship Programme: This program encourages member countries to sponsor the testing of specific nanomaterials, promoting international collaboration and data sharing.
