SPRINT explainer video
This explainer video introduces viewers to the EU-H2020 funded SPRINT project. The aim of the project is to develop a Global Health Risk Assessment Toolbox to assess the impacts of Plant Protection Products (PPPs) on the environment and human health. We will then use this to inform regulators and help farmers/landowners transition towards more sustainable pesticide use.
