The objective of this proposal is to consolidate, strengthen and test the outputs from previous European Commission (EC) Executive Agency for Health and Consumers (EAHC) funded projects;- Alerting System for Chemical Health Threats (ASHT), Chemical and Radiological Inventory of Medical Countermeasures(CARIMEC), Chemical and Radiation Risk Assessment Network(CARRA-Net), through consultation and exercises with end-users (i.e. Health Security Committee (HSC) Chemical, Biological, Radio-Nuclear (CBRN) working group) and multi-sectoral stakeholders at the European Union (EU) and Member State (MS) level. The network of risk-assessors/managers (initiated in CARRA-Net) will be further developed to operate in pilot mode during the project for activation during a transboundary chemical incident with potential public health implications.
