HEAL together with representatives from the medical, scientific, and civil society sectors, is calling on policymakers in Poland to develop a national action plan to reduce the health impacts of harmful chemicals and to support the revision of EU regulations. The appeal was presented on 10 June in Warsaw during the International Conference Preventing Disease by Reducing Exposure to Harmful Chemicals, held under the patronage of the Polish Presidency of the Council of the EU, the Polish Minister of Health, and the President of the Polish Supreme Medical Council.
HEAL alongside other organisations sent a joint letter to Executive Vice-President for European Green Deal Maroš Šefčovič calling to uphold commitments presented in the 2020 Chemicals Strategy for Sustainability and to ensure that they will be delivered by the end of this Commission’s mandate.
