NANOMET | Development and standardisation of methods for the safety testing of manufactured nanomaterials at OECD.

Summary
The aim of the project is to facilitate the harmonisation of testing methodologies at OECD for the generation of nanomaterial safety data and their evaluation across OECD countries. This project will greatly contribute to building consensus around the most relevant and robust test methods to characterize the properties that are specific to nanomaterials and the adaptations needed to existing testing and assessment methodologies. OECD plays a central role in enabling countries reaching agreements on technical instruments and practical tools that are then used globally by industries and governments.
OECD is a member country organization, where working priorities are decided by members and funded by both core budget (half) and voluntary contributions (half). Thus the H2020 CSA type of submission represents an important opportunity for OECD Secretariat to raise funding to accomplish the agreed programme of work.
