The SPRINT-project aims to develop a Global Health Risk Assessment Toolbox to assess

impacts of Plant Protection Products (PPPs) on environment and human health and to

propose several transition pathways

 


The SPRINT-project aims to develop a

Global Health Risk Assessment Toolbox

to assess impacts of Plant Protection Products (PPPs)

on environment and human health

 

 

 

 

The SPRINT project will make an internationally valid contribution to assess integrated risks and impacts of pesticides on environment and human health, both at regional and European level. SPRINT will inform and accelerate the adoption of innovative transition pathways towards more sustainable plant protection in the context of a global health approach. 

ISES Annual Meeting in Montreal - Abstract submission

Join others at the forefront of groundbreaking research at the (International Society of Exposure Science) ISES 2024 Annual Meeting, where research in exposure science, epidemiology, toxicology, and risk assessments converge to explore “Exposures that Impact Health in Vulnerable Populations.”  This meeting will bring together communities from academia, government as well as non-profit organizations working on the front lines trying to protect our valuable commodities, our people.  Elevate your expertise, broaden your network, and contribute to shaping a healthier future at #ISES2024.

If you are considering submitting an abstract to the ISES Annual Meeting in Montreal. The deadline is April 24th

For an abstract on pesticides, you may want to consider #50 from the list - Estimating dietary and non-dietary exposure to pesticides and how to translate them into risk

New SPRINT paper and summary factsheet: pesticide residues in soil

Knuth et al 2024

We have produced a new summary factsheet based on a new paper led by our PhD researcher, Dennis Knuth, entitled 'Pesticide residues in organic and conventional agricultural soils across Europe: measured and predicted concentrations'. 

Find out about other SPRINT publications here. 

SPRINT recognised for our efforts towards assessing the risks of mixing chemicals

We were recently delighted to hear that Bruno Dujardin from the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) referred to SPRINT during his presentation at the recent 41st International Conference on Environmental & Food Monitoring in Amsterdam. He recognised our project as one of many research efforts assessing the risks of mixing chemicals outside of EFSA. 

Tenure Track Position - Aarhus University, Denmark

Our SPRINT partner in Denmark has a brand new job oppurtunity!

The Project

logo sprint h200

SPRINT aims to develop a Global Health Risk Assessment Toolbox to assess impacts of plant protection products (PPP) on ecosystem, plant, animal and human (EPAH) health.

The SPRINT method

Rings

SPRINT consists of 9 interlinked work packages. The distribution and the impacts of PPP on EPAH health will be evaluated at 11 case study sites (CSS)

Measure and Model

Measure

PPP pathways, and direct and indirect animal and human exposure routes will be assessed to improve current fate, exposure, and toxicokinetic models

Stakeholders

stakeholders

SPRINT is based on a multi-actor approach to engage stakeholders and identify needs, improving farmer and citizen awareness, joint development of novel strategies for reduced reliance on PPP use.

Funding

SPRINT Project is funded by

the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Programme for research & innovation under grant agreement no 862568
